MacNewsFix said:My guy at Sprint said I should come at 8AM (special opening time for launch day) even though he'd put ours aside as they might get pinched by another salesperson for his/her clients.
I ordered mine at 5:42AM EST and just got my first notification from apple that my order has shipped. I ordered 2 16gig 4S's, and I have only received one shipping notification. However, when I track my item from UPS, it says the box contains 2 items, even though one is considered shipped, and the other is preparing for shipment.
"Shenzhen, China 10/10/2011 1:50 P.M. Departure Scan
Shenzhen, China 10/09/2011 7:30 A.M. Origin Scan
China 10/09/2011 4:37 P.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS"
Still says delivery on the 14th - BY END OF DAY!
I'm almost regretting ordering from AT&T. I had planned to order from the Apple Store at 3AM, but it broke, and I had to sleep.
AT&T is giving absolutely zero information to most of its purchasers (pending status).
The only thing that's keeping me calm is that those who ordered the iPhone 4 went through the same thing with AT&T, but they got their orders on time.
To tell you the truth, I had a chance to order from ATT an hr earlier but I waited to order from apple. I just trusted them more, I honestly love ATT but their billing history is shady at best. Countless times have I been charged for 'extras' on U-verse and my cell bill..have to call and straighten it out every now and then..so even though I have plenty of services with them, I chose to directly give my money to Apple, felt safer lol
I would be worried that I haven't received 2 notifications for shipment, but it says 2 things in my box with 2 separate tracking numbers, so I am guessing they simplified it...I trust apple more than ATT so I am just going to be patient.
On a side note, I ordered my case today from case-mate and got 20 percent off, if you need the coupon for that, just google case mate coupon and search for 20 percent or I can PM it to you.
Next year, we'll get to say: "Siri, when is my iPhone5 arriving?"
Hmm. I wonder if it will go something like this:
You: "Siri, when is my iPhone5 arriving?"
Siri: "I heard: ~cancel my iPhone5 order~"
You: "No no Siri, ~WHEN~ is my iPhone5 arriving?"
Siri: "Confirmed. Order Cancelled. You didn't need a new phone. Don't you love me anymore?"
You: "..."

Does anyone know if you can buy Applecare later after you buy the iPhone, like 2 weeks later for example?
