????美国东部标准时间周一凌晨2:07，笔者收到苹果公司（Apple）的电子邮件，通知本人之前预订的iPhone 4S手机已于周一一早从中国深圳发货，将在四日内送达。此时，距离笔者通过美国电话电报公司（AT&T）的服务器成功预订iPhone 4S手机过了2天21个小时。

????与此同时，科技博客9to5Mac发布了一则来自斯普林特（Sprint）的通知，称通过斯普林特订购的iPhone手机已于周日午夜发货，送达时间为“次日下午”。

????当然，承诺能否兑现还要看手机能不能按时送达。

????The e-mail from Apple (AAPL) notifying me that my pre-ordered iPhone 4S had left Shenzhen, China, early Monday and was set be delivered in four days popped into my mailbox at 2:07 a.m. EST -- two days and 21 hours after AT&T's (T) servers finally let my order go through.

????9to5Mac meanwhile has posted a notice from Sprint (S) that an iPhone ordered through them had shipped at midnight Sunday and would be delivered "Overnight: Next day PM."

????We'll believe that when we see it.
