Ordered 10/8 Verizon Iphone6 Plus 16g Gold
Still Processing: Expected Shipment 3-4 weeks.

I love getting new phones. It would be nice if it came in the 3 week window. :D
I already bought a clear case for it and am shopping around for wristlets.

An inexpensive silicone gel case on ebay for now. I think the beauty of the Apple phone should be shown.

A co-worker of mine has that one on her iPhone 6 and I was very impressed by it. The phone was sitting on her desk and I couldn't tell that she had any case on till I picked up the phone in my hand. I hate cases, I hate hiding such a beautiful piece of hardware in a case, and this case is the only case that I would recommend to anybody. It is very thin, it literally doesn't add any thickness to the phone in fact it's adds grip to the iPhone 6 and the best part is it's clear, you still see the beautiful iPhone. It's not going to protect your phone if you drop it, but it will definitely save it from scratches and prevent the phone from slipping out of your hand. Me personally will never put a case on, but anyone who asks me about a case, this is the one I've been recommending. Good choice. And it's very cheap, can't beat the price, lol.

Thank you, I was wondering if anyone had thoughts on the clear gel cases. I want to keep my phones in pristine condition with out adding a huge amount of bulk to it and somehow find a cheap case.

Hi all! credit card got charged...mine finally moved from "processing" to "preparing for shipment" I ordered on 9/19 and had a delivery date of 10/20-27...i'm hoping all of you soon will get some movement!

Same here. Last night mine went to preparing for shipment and my credit card got charged. So it looks like they waited for the full 3 weeks window to prepare for shipment which I'm glad they're keeping their 3-4 weeks for shipment promiss. If it does ship today we will be getting them no later than Friday.

Tell me about it! Next time if I'm waiting in line it'll be at my Apple Store not carrier retail. I waited 7 hours to find out they didnt get pluses.

I'm recommending the Supcase unicorn bettle hybrid case. It's clear and it shows the beautifulness of the device. Not that this design is my favorite but at least it showcases the new device. I'm thinking in getting the red bezel one with the clear back.

Personally I'm going to go with apples leather case. I wish I could find more of like a bumper case but this year the phone is odd.

Check out the Supcase unicorn bettle hybrid. It's a hybrid bumper case with a clear back protecting your phone from scratches. It comes in all clear or color ones and it doesn't add much bulk

I waited for 18 hours outside Christiana Mall in DE just to go home empty handed:mad:. This, my 4th release experience lining up and it included State Troopers, police dogs, a 300+ person mad dash to the front of the "line" at 11pm; witnessing 3 people get trampled, one with children in their arms and one lady that remained in line all night with a bruised face and black eye.
Police would not allow anyone to leave to get blankets from the car, food, water or even use the bathroom without being completely kicked out the line. Worst release experience ever.

Here is the meetup thread we had going:

LOL! I learnt my lesson, never again!

But anyway, it seems like everyone's iPhone 6 Plus is going to be on the same plane. I'm guessing it will ship this Saturday or next Monday and get delivered on 10/20.

I just received an email from Apple saying about the shipment notification and just as I expected, it shipped today and the email stated the delivery to be on 10/20. I just tracked the shipment and UPS is showing the delivery 10/16. Anyone else seeing 10/16? I hope it gets here on 10/16, I'm super excited now! Wait is almost over!

Same here, Apple is showing 10/20 but UPS has 10/16. So I hope it gets here on Thursday! Where are you located? I'm in LA. Are you on West or East coast?
