I filed my AOS & EAD in late August, and my receipt notices were issued September 3rd.

I went for my biometrics September 22nd. But nothing has been updated. Both of my reciept numbers are "MSC" but I'm assuming that my I-485 should be moved to my local office? Also i'm in-between Philadelphia and Mt. Laurel, so where will my I-485 go?

Should I contact USCIS for an update? Getting a little worried that i've not heard anything.

When your EAD is approved you will get an update, the wait time for EAD is 75-90 and for some of us it was over 100+ days.

We actually filed at the same time and did our biometrics on the same day. I got an update on i-485 (ready to schedule for interview) on October 1st, which says that they sent me a notice (still not received btw). For the EAD, no update yet.. :'( I really want to work.

From your timeline, you should get it approved sometime in November. You can expedite the EAD to get it faster. It helps to have a job offer/letter. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/453753-how-to-request-to-expedite-your-ead-based-on-a-job-offer/

YES! I was thinking that it would get approved late-october, beginning november, but it takes so long to get EAD... It's hard to apply for jobs because many ask if I can legally work in the US and technically I cannot until I have the EAD.
