A report from MobileSyrup just moments ago verifies that iPhone 5 stock is arriving at Bell locations three days ahead of the official release. Those who had the chance to pre-order their handsets in-store probably love to hear this because it’s some extra re-assurance that delays shouldn’t be a problem.
The anonymous tipster tagged a photo to the report without citing a specific location for security purposes. It appears that the box is the same as the one on the iPhone 5 pre-order page.
If you still have pre-ordered the iPhone yet, chances are you will have to wait until Friday to pick one up at the Apple store. We have posted a full launch roundup post with all information on the iPhone’s release. As of now, all Canadian carriers are ‘sold-out’ of the iPhone 5 pre-orders.
The iPhone 5 comes equipped with the new A6 processor, which doubles the speed of the iPhone 4S. Other features include a larger display, lightning dock connector, and LTE internet. Click here to learn the full details.
Where did you pre-order your iPhone from?

Fido iphones must be coming too. My original place on the line was 602nd. Now it’s 34th.
Wow, that’s a lot of iPhones. Hope you get one on time, atleast we know stock shortages are becoming less of a problem.
I went from 204th to some lower number to “In Progress” 2 days ago
I went from 217th to 184th today on the 32g black and slate unit I ordered on Fido. I wonder what it means…
Odd. I started at 631 on Friday morning, got down to 617 by Saturday afternoon and flipped to “In Progress” Saturday night with no number. On Rogers.
i was 96th on friday morning now it says “in process” since saturday night.. rogers 32gb whitea$$
Just got a text from rogers that my phone has shipped!
FU 😛 what was your number and which i5 did you get ?
I also just got a text and e-mail from rogers saying my phone was shipped, and a tracking number. Was 650 in line for a 16gb black iphone.
I was #61 for a 16GB white
Got a call from my local bell store that they have received mine and I can pick it up after 8am Friday
I got a text message from Rogers as well, saying my iPhone is in transit! FWIW, I was #21 on Friday morning, haven’t checked since, because that seemed like a pretty safe number! 😉
I pre-ordered my iPhone 5 32GB black from Future Shop! Can’t wait to have it in my hands on Friday!!!
My fido acount now says “in process” on my order. What does that mean??
I spoke to Rogers 2 days ago and I was telling the rep that I was around 1,400 in line, and he said “you are lucky, some people are around 20,000” That made me feel good. ‘In Progress’ now.
I received my tracking number from Rogers saying both my phones are in Concord Ontario and will arrive before end of day on the 20th in London
I started out at 1,126, then yesterday I checked and I was 217, and then today it says “In Progress”. What do you think the odds are that I’ll be able to pick up my phone on Friday? I’m with Rogers.
Phone being shipped out now and says should arrive in the store tomorrow evening =D
I was
I was #65 for Rogers, checked the status of the shipment of my iPhone and it was delivered an hour ago!
