I thought you said you were involved with product development at 2 companies. Surely someone like you would know that production and/or supply chain issues happen...
Got a tip for us?

Actually thats why I got a 6s after a 6 plus and will be getting a 7 plus now.
It is very hard to go back from the big screen.
I thought because of the smaller size I might be carrying around my 6s more than my 6plus, but I didn't.
I missed the larger screen however every single day.
Genuinely dont understand the excitement and desire to queue here. It's sad.

[doublepost=1474039105][/doublepost]The iPhone 7 is actually more like an iPhone6S+ or iPhone6S+ Plus. In my eyes, it's less of an interaction than between the 6 and the 6S.
People are peculiar!

Exactly, it's quite bizarre. From the previous model, you're getting a slightly better screen, fast CPU (which none of these people are likely to notice) and the removal of a jack. I don't get it!

My phone is always in my hand, or back pocket. I find the Plus too large/heavy. I was using someone else's 6 regular over the summer and it's just perfect (to me). Now I have my Plus again and hating every minute. Ha. First world problems. Enjoy those sweet dual cams!
Every year? With every product? Apple sure is unlucky with their manufacturing.
It's an awful, wasteful system that encourages people to keep changing degrees, or to move overseas for work when they graduate so they never pay it back.
Like all welfare programs it sounds good, and has good intent but it is administered by the government so it is bloated and bureaucratic and inefficient.

Every product? I don't remember them selling out of the latest iPads, the latest Macbooks, the Mac Pro's...
Also, I don't think this is a yearly thing production issues and supply chain issues happen every year. Some years they simply can't make enough devices, and they aren't going to wait until supply meets demand until it goes on sale. There would be millions of phones in storage that could have been sold already.
I do think this year they ran into issues though, given how quickly select models were sold out. Or they were caught off guard by how many people would want the plus model over the non-plus model, but how could they have predicted that?
