Like many I ordered my 5s this morning at 2:01AM when it went on sale.
No biggie I thought, I'll wait for delivery.

But the hype got the better of me...
On a whim I drove by a local TMO store and went in.
I couldn't buy the 5s outright like I did with Apple this morning.
Instead they have $100 down and a monthly plan.

So I'll have my TMO monthly bill plus the $25-30 tacked on to pay for the 5s.
If I choose to leave TMO next week, I have to buy the 5s outright.

Why couldn't I just buy it straight up right now?

Part of me wants to wait for delivery next week.
The other part wants the 5s now. 4s on TMO is straight up caca.

Should I wait or take my butt back to TMO?
Only difference I see is that the one I purchased online is unlocked.
TMO is well... locked to TMO and I have to wait 40 days to unlock it.
 
Save yourself the headache and wait for your iPhone that you ordered online.
