I'm still waiting for my package. I honestly don't think UPS will be back until 5-7pm.

Yes I said, 'back'. They deliver to my building only commercial packages early and come back later in the afternoon for residential deliveries. Oh well, I can wait!

I always thought that was stupid. Really? Come back later when you're already there? Obviously, a HUGE time waster. I guess the driver really loves his OT.

I'm scared to touch it. But time for activation!
 
SOB UPS..... Usually when I am not present, they drop off my package at my apartments office for that signature required. Nope not today driver was an ass and didn't do that. First time they have ever done that. Now waiting to see if I can go pick it up later today after the driver returns from his rounds.....
 
hello all, if i order the contract free (t-mobile version) 6, does that mean it's the unlocked version? i assume no, but would there be the unlocked version later on?

I'm wondering the same thing. Also anyone else order a iPhone Plus 64GB (T-Mobile) around 9:40am EST (9-12-14) on launch day? I was up at 3am EST, and couldn't order anything for 2 hours because the store was down (Apple Store app didn't allow t-mobile orders). So I finally tried again around 9:30am EST (9-12-14) and completed the order. Now I have to wait 3-4 weeks. Says Delivers: Oct 13 - Oct 20. Just wondering if everyone else is in the same boat as me for having ordered around this time. My understanding is that the store didn't start working until 6am EST, so I was only 3 hours late, and now I must suffer an entire month?
 
I got mine!!!

Just got home from getting my iPhone 6 128 g, space grey. I stood in line at the AT&T store and only waited 2.5 hours and was out of there with it. I did see AT&T stores in other locations that were saturated with lines but the store I went had maybe 60 people waiting in line at 8:00 am.

I can tell you that there was limited supply on the 6 plus, and this will be everywhere according to the store reps due to the demand of pre-orders. So, at this point and time those of you who ordered the 6 16, 64, 128 g have a better chance at getting your orders a lot sooner than the 6 plus orders. I'm just saying this is what they told us in line. The 6 plus orders were backing up to 2 months wait if you were to order today.

For the first time I was able to physically see in person, the 6 and the 6 plus. I must say that the 6 you'll find significantly bigger than any iPhone. The 6 plus (in comparison) is the size of a Galaxy Note 3, I kid you not it's ginormous. People with small hands will probably have a hard time with one hand. I've owned a Galaxy note 3 and that's exactly what it feels like.

One more thing. The reason why I'm saying the 6 is plenty of size is because the iOS 8 has a built in zoom feature (not the accessibility) and you will be able to select the zoom operation for all functions not just some, or the original size if you choose. No overlapping of the texts in the browser that I've noticed and this is what the reps demonstrated.

Anyway I give you guys some first hand information and I hope its useful to you. Hand in there they are on the way. :D:apple::D

My Apple order for a 128 Space Gray 6+ just went to preparing for shipping!

Still says it will ship in 7-10 business days for delivery Oct 1-7, which is what it's said all along.

Anyone had theirs update to "preparing to ship" and had the delivery time advance? I don't care about release day delivery, but if it arrives by Oct 30 I can take it to Verizon and swap to their much cheaper promotional Single Line Plan.

Mine was ship in 7-10 business days, went to preparing to ship on Thursday, and has now been shipped for delivery 9/25.
 
My order status for 2 iPhone 6+ 128gb says Preparing for Shipment on Apple's website along with a ship date of 7-10 business days and expected delivery of October 1-6. I just checked UPS My Choice and I have two tracking numbers with delivery dates of 9/22 and 9/25! Very excited!!
 
My UPS delivery window says 2-6pm. Fedex is usually here in the morning but nothing yet from them.

I have no delivery window listed, even with My Choice. It just allows me to select a 2 hour delivery window, which I'm disinclined to do in fear that it will mess up delivery today. ;)

We appreciate the info... I think there should be a sticky on tips/first impressions.

Drive around your neighborhood and look for the truck. He cant be that far away.
