the 2nd link posted is working, however it seems to only confirm reservations for IUP. If I make an IUP reservation can I just pay in full in store?
 
If you take a look at the data Apple's site sends you on the page load you can actually see the availability by store. I hope it's not updated because it's not looking good for Pluses...

Yeah, I was using the link for the non-IUP reservations and it wasn't loading anything. Checked the IUP one and found my local Apple stores. No 7+ ones. Calling it a night. I'm just fed up with the Verizon preorder nonsense and was hoping this may prove to be a good alternative.

Lucky you!

Anyway there's another thread discussing the reservation site. A couple people talked to Apple reps. One said it was 12:01 PST, but people don't believe that because in the past the time zone was stated. Another rep said that they still thought it was 8am so they don't know any better than us apparently.

I was told it was 8am by apple employees. The site could be wrong.
If I remember correctly from last year it was 8 a.m. but if you checked on istocknow you could find out ahead of time if they were going to have the model you wanted.
