I noticed the poll, and some are people wanting 64gb. Is it b.c you want a certain carrier model? They are still available with delivery on 9/25.

The smart way to "camp out" is online, although that boat has long since sailed. Frankly I'm pretty disgusted by all the flippers that tend to line up these days outside the Apple Store; it ruins the excitement of talking with fellow Apple enthusiasts while waiting for the store to open. It's a lot more pleasant to get it directly online.
It seems theres even less incentive to wait in line this year as pre-ordering online was an absolute breeze..not to mention the fact you can reserve and pick up anytime that day...
Well im going to get from verizon. i had someone that works with verizon that was doing it for me but i gave him the wrong password and by the time i got his text it was to late. Sooooo.... im going to camp at verizon.
Just to help everyone out I remember this website from last year. Currently it shows only online stock but when it launches this will update to in store stock. Good luck guys!

Good luck to anyone camping out. Bring Snacks and water, but not so much you have to use the bathroom. Also, bring something to entertain yourself. The wait is intolerable
The wait now is killing me, i sold my 5s and im using a 4s right now.
I only camp in places like this...
Camping out... LOL, I've got better things to do than camp out for a phone. pre-order and delivery are amazing feats.
Don't be a party pooper. I camped out once for the 5s because pre order wasn't available for that model. It was a pretty cool experience got to meet people
who were tech junkies like myself, but probably not doing it again lol. That being said, everyone who is an Apple fan should do it at least once. I've been pre ordering and been loving that for the previous years.
I will camp out for sure. It's fun! You meet some nice people, watch movies while you chill, ect.
It starts to suck around 4-5am, everyone starts hurting.
I always get in line at my Verizon store around 10-11pm. Always top 5 in line

No thanks. I've never camped out for any product and I have no intention of starting now.
I camped out a couple of times. It's definitely fun, you get to know your neighbor campers and time flies. You do get exhausted at the end of it all but the excitement of having your new iPhone keeps you awake.
These days I just preorder though.

Disagreed! Did it a few times in NYC (5th ave. store) and it's not a nightmare at all. There's hundreds and hundreds of people yes, but that only makes it more fun. The energy is crazy amazing!
