Ha ha I just don't like them. I don't want anything dangling from my ears like that. From a design perspective, they are hideous, from an audiophile perspective they are sub par. Just being honest. I don't care if you or anyone else likes them. You got them for free so it's all good :)

Well I have Beats Studios for my "serious" music listening, and a killer Sony Entertainment System that blasts around the condo. I needed something I could go for a jog with, and Beats Studios are certainly not for that. I hate the EarPods because they have wires. Plus, I have the Apple Watch S3 LTE so I can go for a jog without my phone and listen to music or take calls with the AirPods, and also invoke Siri with them. That seems like good tech to me.

:apple:

I was one that started out in the 17-24 batch that moved to 16-24. Well it just now switched to PFS. Wonder if that means it’s coming sooner?

I think they will be good for your needs then. Good on you that you scored them over this garbage debacle that we are facing. Now my Amex is jacked up, only with Apple Pay...of course. So they probably tried to charge my iPhone X taxes and what not, and now I'm screwed haha.
 
VZW SG 256GB just went PFS and card charged for taxes. No change in date (changed to 16th yesterday.) iUP ordered around 11 after the hour.

Now states " Preparing for shipment" Date still hasn't changed yet
 
Mine just went to preparing for shipment.

256gb, Space Grey, IUP, At&T.

Originally 11/17-11/24, then 11/16-11/24.

Dates haven't changed but I imagine It'll ship long before that.

Folks, prepping for shipment means the actual phone has been assigned, correct? should the track# start showing up in UPS mychoice?

Holy crap! I thought you were making a joke (given the latest topics). JUST CHARGED! Edited to add, no change in status yet, but I’ll cross everything!

I just got charged, too! No change in order status or delivery date — still 11/16-24 — but this is either very promising or another mistake!
 
If you're thinking of going to the store on Friday and getting one you'll just be wasting your time. There's very little chance you will.
If u go Thursday night and camp out (like I’ve done many times) you will get one. Can’t show up Friday morning. But if u do it right, you will get a phone.
 
Charge pending from Apple 20 minutes ago. Now order moved from “Order in Progress” to “Shipping in Progress”!!! OMG! OMG!
I got so excited I slammed my wine glass down in my hotel room and broke my wine glass stem. I improvised though. Lol

Camping out is more extreme than I’d be willing to do. Especially when it’s freezing cold. I don’t want it on release day that badly.
