I have been here for 4 and 4s and I am here again now. I had not posted yet cause I was trying a different approach (the slow agonizing process of waiting without talking), but I have been reading calmly.
Well my order just went off back order today.
Ordered blk 16GB 9/17 and pushed to 9/19
Checked status today as I did everyday and the "calm thing" just went off the roof.
Called AT&T at 5pm eastern and got the regular run over.
Checked order status just now to see the famous 0 under back order.
Now I am a little better as I know the worst case now, according to this forum, is getting my phone next week.
Thank you all!
Hope u get your iPhone 5 Soon! ill have to wait a little longer
