I know dumb question, but when it says preorders start on September 14th is that at 12:01am EST on the 14th?

Just want some clarification because I am sure this thing will sell quickly.

Thanks for any help
 
It's not that it's a dumb question, it's just that it's been posted a hundred times before. It should be around 0300 EST, which is 0000 PST. I don't think it's an exact time though, and last year it crashed for 45 minutes straight and nobody could order.
 
Well, I personally would like it to be pre-5am so I can order before work

Otherwise, I'd have to wait until the afternoon and I don't know how fast these things sell out (if they do)
 
So do the preorders start Thursday NIGHT/Friday AM or Friday NIGHT/Sat AM?

Thursday night/Friday AM.

If it was Friday night/Saturday AM, it would be the 15th.

I read somewhere that Sprint said pre-orders would start at 12:01 AM PST. I don't remember when I saw that though. I'm assuming Apple would start at the same time.

You saw that at 9to5mac.
 
Anyone know if Best Buy will accept preorders on Friday and have them shipped on the 21st?
