Hasn't this happened already? I could swear there was a riot or something recently that halted production.
Maybe Santa will be bringing my phone this year
Yeah, I think the riot was a couple days before release. In that timeframe more or less.
Got a tip for us?

If I start my Apple.com order before 10PM, can I refresh the cart at 10PM and get pick up as a choice, or do I need to start the order from the beginning at 10PM?
Just returned my Verizon 64GB due to lack of coverage out here in the woods.
Man, I hated to part with it but my 14 day cancellation period was up.
Now what is my best way to score a new AT&T 64GB without waiting 14-21 days?
The stores around here have none in stock.

Web orders for 64GB seem to be shipping in less than a week.
From what I'm seeing on this thread, 64GB were shipping quickly through AT&T, although you never know what's happening with the strike now.

Try to reserve one from the Apple Store at 10pm. Seems like the most simple and straightforward method.
Got a 16GB black reserved! Will they really not let me pick up my phone even though I'm an authorized user?
Should I just go to the apple store and do the whole order at 10pm and pickup next day? I ordered a black 32gb on the 23rd, and just recently my pending charge disappeared.
What do you guys recommend? I'm not getting all butt hurt, but I'm definitely sick of having no phone for the past 3 weeks. (Since I sold my iPhone 4 to get the 5..)
What do you guys think?!

I've had two iPhones in my cart for a week. I can view my cart after 10pm and the iPhones are still in my cart. It gives me the option to check the stores for stock. It's probably a good idea to start your order and have the iPhone sitting in your cart when reservation time rolls around.
Edit: Oops, you already got yours reserved before I replied
. I don't know anything else about the reservation process though.Anyone have any updates to their BO status? Just wondering if any (especially 16gb's) have been taken off BO recently. The posts in this thread have died down a lot do I don't know if most people have gotten their phones already or if they've just cancelled...
How easy is it to call them up and cancel an online order? I'd obviously have to find one in store first but I wouldn't want to buy it if I can't cancel... and vice versa...

They won't. You either have to be an authorized user or have the account holder there.
There's a chance they'll let you if the account holder is on the phone with them or something. But you'd have to work that out with them when you get there.

FYI..it was like 10:05 pm when store pickup finally showed in stock. The in store option opened at like 9:40 pm or so but showed out of stock everywhere until 10:05 pm.
I think I remember you having the same dates as me (order 9/20 processed 9/21). My 16gb black went off backorder two days ago but has yet to ship. A 32gb black that was part of the same order went off backorder at the exact same time but is already shipped and delivered.
It's a little strange to me because getting off BO means they have a phone set aside for you so why didn't it ship out?
16gb? It's been like two days for me also. Meanwhile I know someone who had a 32gb get off backorder and ship out todayI don't understand the thing with changing BO to 0 is like giving us a false hope that it will be shipped soon. I've been sitting on BO 0 for about 55 hours already and still no shipping info.
I'm sorry, read your other post wrong. Yes, you should be able to with no problem.

I pre-ordered a 16GB Black on 9/17 through the att website, came off of back-ordered on 9/29, and six days later, still no shipping info. I really hope I get my phone next week.
No. 32gb White. I was really excited when it changed to BO 0 then I realized that status change doesn't guarantee anything. :/
