Apple Now Letting Customers 'Get Ready' for iPhone 14 Launch With Pre-Order Setup

First iPhone 14 pre-orders now shipping ahead of Friday's release
For those who are new to pre-orders, Apple imposes a very strict hold/do not deliver order on iPhone preorder shipments.
Even if the carrier has possession of them at your local hub before release day, they are set aside and will not deliver until the date stated by Apple/the carrier.
If you have an earlier than release day delivery date, when that day comes, more than likely you'll see your tracking updated to some form of Hold status until the 16th.
I know carriers get sloppy and will let preorders through with Android devices sometimes but I'm fairly sure Apple enforces this to all of their retailers/carriers very carefully.

I pre ordered on the 9th in the morning as soon as they became available to order, and still have no shipping information. Just an order confirmation that I ordered a hardware upgrade. It also cost me a $500 deposit.
This is for the 256gb silver iPhone 14 Pro.
