If you have been reading the 4000+ replies on the other thread you no there are people whos phones will not arrive tomorrow and there delivery has changed to tuesday the 23rd. What is Apple gonna do to all the people they failed to deliver on time. They promised us 19th which is why a lot ordered online and are getting screwed. Wish i could cancel and wait in line tomorrow.

geeeeesh, what is wrong with you people.....

.....then you have to wait another 4 days... What's the big deal?


Seriously, people should remind themselves that it's just a phone, not a life-saving-super-gadget needed for survival.

Sorry to be so harsh, but it really annoys me. I also "reserved" the 32gb 3gs and maybe it won't be in my local store by tomorrow but it makes no difference to me having it on friday or monday / tuesday...

best regards

Past tense on a future date?

Anyway, my delivery date hasn't changed to the 23rd. I'm going to believe UPS (for now) and cross my fingers it'll be here tomorrow no later than 10:30am.

I agree with gloss, we can't say they can't deliver them all until it happens.

Why are we complaining about things that have not yet, and might never, occur?

I thought tomorrow was the 19th. Unless there's another hidden feature in the 3GS, TIME TRAVEL?!?

I'm betting some of the tracking systems are delayed, but Apple/AT&T are right on time for tomorrow's delivery.

Delivery

My delivery date only showed on the first day it was posted for tracking (17th) but since, they removed the delivery date field, I don't even see that anymore. but mine is in AK; overnight it and I should be able to get it on time.

Unless something went wrong with an individual order, I can't see why Apple would promise 19th delivery the 17th orders and not do it. Maybe if you ordered on the 17th you might have got bumped from a full plane. Apple knows better than to straight up lie, so right now I'm assuming they will get there or it's an isolated crap happens.

and if that's the case, Apple is in for some bad publicity.

I dont know how you can start a thread like this when the 19th isnt till tomorrow for one thing. My phone is still in KY with a hold but its not the 19th. Even if it does not make it I can see why the peeps that use a iphone get a bad rep. This is dumb it is but a phone not a life saving cancer drug. Get a grip whoever started this thread.:eek:

the funny thing is that most of these people already have a 3G so its not it's some massively different new product they are trying to get their hands on.

WOW! You people need to get a life.
Some of you are going to end up like this chick if you find out your iPhone won't be delivered tomorrow.

No, you have the right to re-read the terms and conditions. I'm pretty sure that "deliever by date" had an star* by it.

a) It's not the 19th, so nobody actually knows that they're not getting their phones. Two days ago people were swearing up and down that they would have their iPhones on the 17th or 18th. How'd that work out?

b) So go buy one in line tomorrow and just return the pre-ordered phone, brand new in box.

But tomorrow will be the 19th and this thread will still be here, so even though it's not the truth yet, it will become the truth. Open up your mind and take a drag of whatever the OP is smoking.

Yeah, I was thinking I saw the same thing, just can't remember the wording. Good luck getting anything back - you'll be getting your phone so Apple did their part. If you paid extra for shipping you can already get that retracted.

I'm not gonna beg apple for anything. They shouldn't promise 19th delivery with emails saying you will get it on the 19th then not.
