For people that got or ordered a 5s on launch day

[vmachiel]

Hi Forum,

The 5s is finally coming to my country next week. For those of you who got it at launch: how many did your store have in stock?
If you ordered it on launch day, how many days did you have to wait?

I know this will be different per country etc, but I'd like to get a general idea what I'm in for.

Thanks!

In Hong Kong you can start to pre-register for the iPhone 5S on the day the announcement was made. I was one of the first to register in the morning. On launch day I got an SMS to pick up the iPhone on select stores.

I ordered from my carrier on the afternoon of launch day, and mine arrived in about 2 weeks.

ETA: I got the space grey... it may have been slower for the gold.
