My status has been a comedy of errors. Mine was supposed to come today, except when I tried to change the billing address to my current residence Apple accidentally sent it to another state a good 10 or so hours away. After many days of calling Apple now says that they've arranged everything with UPS so it'll come to me now as soon as possible, but UPS currently has it in my town ready for shipping to another state. I'm hoping Apple will redirect it and fix it before it leaves town for no reason tonight..
Initially my order said 19th then yesterday (18th) it changed to september 26th-29th. This morning (19th) I got a tracking number and a delivery date of Monday 22nd. It is coming from Ontario Canada and I live in Hawaii. great surprise.
that is awesome! congrats! let me tell you, it worth the wait!! what did you order?
got the plus in gold but had wanted space gray and the app had a mind of it's own - the gold is very light, looks way better in person then in pictures, it's very understated, it's like a champagne gold
apple usually gives a longer ship date than what it ends up being! that's intresting that's it going from Ontario to Hawaii, does not sound like a common flight path, yunno??
I mentioned this a few times already, but I waited till around 11pm for UPS to deliver my iPhone 5 two years ago.
it arrived really late, like 40 mins ago and he still has a truck full! holy cow, you are 6" tall,are you a model? girl too + everyone thinks i'm tall at 5'7 but i guess the proper shoes add a few more inches!
mine is charging now! love apple along w/my mini bags, first thing i grabbed was my smallest bag and voila it fit perfect! can't wait to set it up!
Good to know and congratz on having it in your hands
Out on the truck since 5:16am. 'Tis now 4:09pm.On the other hand, the 6 I ordered from AT&T for my wife arrived 3 hours ago :roll eyes: Mine was ordered through Apple

hey you! i remember you from 3am when we were all going bananas w/site down! what time did yours arrive today? hope you rec'd early to make up for the 5! what did you get?
Picked up my 6 Plus at around noon today. A little bigger than I was expecting but it's amazing! Coming from the iPhone 5 I'm in love with Touch ID. My work email requires an 8 digit passcode to unlock the phone so this is a thousand times better!
Yay!!! So glad yours finally came. I remember back when we were freaking out on the 5 thread
my SO has the Samsung Note S or whatever it's called so I tried that in my clutch. Glad to know I'm not the only one. I usually end up with the phone in my pocket though so that's important too. Nope not a model but it's fun when I'm out with my 6'5" SO, people look at us like we *should* be famous or important or something. Alas, we're just nerds usually looking for snacks lol.

thank you, at least you can play with hers, could be worse!!
he will be there soon!! have a bottle of water or soda for him, mine was famished + exhausted!
i felt so bad for my guy, he usually comes at 10/11 latest so he was running quite late, he had to do all of his by 10am orders first then go back to everywhere again.....
I picked up my pre-ordered space gray, iPhone 6 at the Apple store around 3 PM. I was the only one in that line, but there was a long line still waiting to buy iPhones. I said I was surprised they still had any left and the salesperson told me that they ran out earlier, but got a second shipment in that afternoon.
I love my phone - perfect for me and everything works great so far.

Oh my gosh so you're just sitting there watching your wife play with her new phone? That's torture!!! Hopefully she left you at least hold it.
I agree. This is one instance where the actual product actually looks even better than the CG-generated, Photoshopped, studio-lit marketing materials. The iPhone 6 is so large I actually barely notice the antennas. But then I promptly covered mine with a case.Repsect your opinion and to each their own but I'm really liking how the gold looks in person

I didn't even ASK for a free case. The guy just offered me one for the Inconvenience. A free 49.00 leather case. Can't complain here. My phone just shipped VIA Fedex from California and will be here on Monday!!
Quite surprised my 6 Plus was delivered at 9:30am. Usually when it says "by end of day" it shows up after 6:00pm. Very pleasantly surprised by the early delivery!
Mine just shipped via Fedex from California. Will be here Monday also. Can't wait!

Just got an email from Apple saying my iPhone 6 Plus shipped via FEDEX and will be here Monday! A few extra days and a free leather case from Apple. Not too bad after all.
Same here i didn't ask for a free case the Apple guy (Lucas) just offered me a $50 leather case after I called to verify the status of my order a few days ago
Just checked ups tracking scheduled for Sept. 22 delivery coming all the way from ZhengZhou, China☺️
Yay!!! So glad yours finally came. I remember back when we were freaking out on the 5 thread
YES, OMG i totally remember, i think we were the only girls! the 5 was FUN, that was a great week, was laughing the whole time! love it on here, wish i had more time to be on as everyone is super nice and popping by to thank each other! would love to be 6" tall hence my high shoes! the only bummer is on planes, even i get squished in cattle class as my legs are long, you must go crazy or hopefully just upgrade!!
awesome that SO is 6'5! hey nothing wrong with being a nerd, no one would know i was either! can't wait to take pics + go pay for something with the iPhone!! enjoy cutie pie! will be around and i'm sure we will all be back again for next round!!
----------
Mine finally arrived. it's a keeper
YEAH!! 6+ i assume?!?
enjoy!!
----------
awesome! what color case? now, you can read all the fun articles this w/e and be even more stoked when it get's there with an amazing case!!
----------
is that your first update this whole week? did you call apple, you should if everyone is getting cases, why not?!?
Thanks for the sympathy Kenya
Yes it is a bit hard waiting and preparing to activate mine...when it comes.I am being a good, ok very good husband and waiting for her to come home to unbox it...(where's that halo smiley?)
Geeze my 6 has been riding in that UPS truck for over 12 hours now.
Poor thing
