for the first time in 12 years I'm not interested and won't be getting the new release, they multi-bulged this one way too much, no increased storage either.
 
Was very quick. Had all the pre-approval done the other day on the IUP. Gray Pro Max 512 gb.

And I just checked, I do have my confirmation email about processing the order.

When I placed order, it said Sept. 20 delivery. I didn’t closely check the email confirmation until I checked my order status a little bit ago. Sonofab****, it says Sep. 27th-Oct. 1 delivery. Called Apple and they won’t even let you talk to a live person today. So much for IUP loyalty. I placed my order just as the store went live a few minutes after 7am local time. Yes, it’s first world problems, but I”m still aggravated that what I saw and what got confirmed were 2 different things.
