So has anyone here considered the Apple Store reservation program for in store pickup? As they get new shipments each day they keep going down list and assign one to you. List is erased at end of each day. Have to check in each day,

How can we do that? Ive been trying to do it but i havent been able to
 
Nope i ordered on atts website because apple was down. I received my confirmation at 3:11 am est. Idk how i got in so early i was on att website since 2:45am and it was letting people in early. The earliest ive seen was a 2:40 something order time lol

At&T on iPhone preorders are tricky. They do have some launch day phones, but they also have to siphon phones to their retail stores. Target is a good deal, you can save about $20-$25 with the Target CC, but then you'll have to wait an extra few days to get them. But in this case, if you pre-ordered through them this time, they are giving you a gift card to compensate for the lost time, if they gave you a launch day order they couldn't fulfill. They also did it with the new apple watches, along with BestBuy.
 
Congrats for all the people who switched to Shipped today!

I'm still in processing! I need to wait more I think, any 256 GB Jet Black shipped?

Call your preferred Apple Store in your area. They're probably tight right now with walk ins.

Still no movement what so ever :( 128 GB ordered on Verizon right as preorders went live. estimated delivery of 9/23 - 10/5. But, I know, I know, be patient! It'll be here when it's suppose to be here.

I did consider it yesterday. Could've easily gotten any 7+ (except for JB... obviously). My patience to wait an extra day seems to have paid off. ;)

Just beware it can sometimes take up to 24-48 hours for the upgrade to show up after a cancellation.

Well i would be just paying off what i finish owing on the android which is about $180 to cancel my next contract all together and just joining the IUP program..makes so much more sense tbh.
 
I mean... lets put a picture of all the colors on the plus model (incl the jet black that was heavily advertised during the keynote) with the words "Available September 16" next to them...

What does that tell you?
That their lawyers are smart enough to realize that doesn't constitute a promise.

I'be tried to to the IUP but I can't justify it.
 
Everyone needs to chill. It's a phone. Worst case folks are starting to get them on Monday, exactly ONE BUSINESS DAY late. If that's Apple's biggest failure, move along...nothing to see here. Go outside. Enjoy life. It'll be okay.
Absolutely! Mine is coming tomorrow, which suits me fine. I am having it shipped to my office to make sure someone can sign for it, and I don't work on Fridays! Gave me something to look forward to. If you have the watch - everyone needs to use the Breathe app!

My phone was shipped this morning for Tuesday delivery, and is showing in my support profile. Went to PFS early yesterday morning, ordered through Apple, 128 JB ATT email confirm 3:11
 
Was able to reserve and pickup 7+ 256GB Black ATT today at my local Apple Store! I had preordered on September 9th at xx:45 and was still in "Processing". Just made the reservation while sitting in church, called Apple after and cancelled my preorder. Seems local Apple Stores are getting limited shipments as the flights come over.
