I'm happy for you, and also a little jelly! Cant wait to get mine
Got to hold my phone today for a few minutes. Well technically it was someone's who works here. I help users setup their new phones to receive our corporate email. I'll normally help them back up their old phones and restore to the new ones if needed. iCloud works great for this.
They are pretty slick. This was the first 6+ I have setup. Been setting up the iPhone 6 from day one.

Not hard I just signed into iCloud it did everything else for me. And just calling the 800 number to activate. It's gonna take awhile to download everything have about 400 apps going on it lol
SG 6+ 128 GB
Ordered 9/19
Shipping window: 11/9-11/27
Status : Preparing To Ship, #877 = 'Back Ordered'
I've seen other orders like mine, on later days, already shipped. I see lots of folks still waiting from launch day. There's no method to this madness.
I'm patient though. Deep breaths...
I have my UAG case to carry around.

Blows my mind that I ordered the exact same phone on 9/12 and my shipping window 10/31-11

Are you sure this is your window? You would be the only one I have seen with a 10/30-11/10. Most near that date have 10/31-11/11 and of course had to order on 9/12 for a SG 6+ 128GB.
Ordered 9/12 at 9:29 am MDT in ATT store
64 GB Silver
Shipping dates: 10/31-11/11
Still have the dreaded backorder message at the 877 number.
iDevicechecker sent an email in the middle of the night saying that an Apple store in my area finally got some stock in. Apple Store page was down so I called the minute the store opened, waited 6 minutes on hold and the phones were gone. The wait continues.

Thanks, mightyjabba! The store I was in shows up on AT&T's website as a company store, but I've got several in my area, so I'll give a couple others a call to see if they can be more helpful.
yes- if it makes any difference - I ordered thru Premier:
Upgrade
Phone/Device: Apple iPhone 6 Plus (128GB Space Gray)Nation 700 FamilyTalk w/Rollover $60.00 (grandfathered)
Processing
Expected Ship Date: 10/30/2014 To 11/10/2014
The thing is they won't last long there because so many people want them. By the time you get there cancel you online order and get your upgrade back they will prolly be gone. Just saying
I have a log of apps too but if I get rid of my iPad I will have to be a little selective. Most apps are on ipad but I'm not sure I will keep ipad.
Yeah, it's probably gone by now. Heck about 20 stores had them today. What I'm saying is Apple should not be shipping stock to sell to walk ins when they have yet to fill orders made over a month ago.
The easiest way is to call 611 with the phone that has the number the iPhone will get..... a computer will ask you a couple questions and you press 1 a few times and you're done.
Don't have to talk to anybody, I consider that a plus with AT&T
I completey agree with this, I even got on Chat with an Apple CSR the other day to ask about this and they pretty much said all they can do is ship what AT&T requests from them. I told them that I had a hard time believing that AT&T hadn't requested a phone that I ordered a month ago already. They CSR was really nice and I didn't take it out on her cause it wasn't her fault. All in all though I got no where with the conversation. I feel like AT&T's only saving grace (if you could even call it that) is that they aren't getting stock in their stores until after the orders have been filled.
Just saw where you can get a cellular iPad Air 2 on Pre-Order from AT&T with shipping estimates of 6-10 business days. Sadly I might be able to get my iPad Air 2 before my iPhone6+.
This may be very true as many people will still be to disappoint in apple to bother to order the ipad air 2. you just may have it even sooner lol

I agree with that. Every now and than when I call 877 number it goes to agent. I just hang up and dial again. I don't want to talk to anyone on ATT right now.
Really? I didn't know that - I could swear att near me had some in stock. But could totally be wrong.
Well I lucked out today everybody my Apple Store near me in Columbus had the 6+ SG 128 in stock. I finally gave up on AT&T order (11/7-11/27 window), went to the Apple Store and once I had one in hand I cancelled my order with AT&T. I know I've been watching this tread every day hoping to see people get their orders quicker but it looks like Apple isn't gettinh AT&T stock any faster then they have too. I wish everyone luck and I hope someone gets theirs sooner now that I have mine.
