Wonder what that means.. Deliveries starts on 14th means, people will get their device starting 14th.. OR by 14th.. OR they will start their process on 14th and actual delivery to customer will happen few days later??
Apple.. please be more specific please.. sorry, SIRI, when will iPhone 4s be delivere to customer?
You do know the difference between the words "shipped" and "delivered", right?
The phone will be shipped a couple of days before the 14th, so it will be delivered on the 14th.
Obviously, weather, signature upon delivery, backorders, etc. are unforeseen factors.
