I don't see how it took anyone 40 minutes to get through to order a watch. It took me a few minutes to order 2 watches, one for myself and one for my wife. I had my confirmation e-mails seconds later.
The ordering process went super fast with no lag like past iPhone launches. No need to check carrier upgrades. It was simply point and click.
Go figure.
It took me a minute after the store opened (force-quit and restarted the apple store app like 5 times), and another minute or two to enter my new CC info and shipping address. I got my order in at 4 minutes past 12am on the 10th. My estimated shipping date? May 20 - June 1st.
That is a pile of crap. I'm sorely disappointed that I waited up and ordered within 3 minutes but have been pushed back so far.
That was for my Sport Space Grey - I ordered a SS Milanese right after that, another minute went by, but I got a 4/24 shipment estimate for that one.
Super cheesed that I have to wait a month for my Sport model.
