International iPhone 4S Order Status Thread

It really depends on Apple; keep tracking on your order and watch for status change from "Processing" to "Preparing for shipment"

I have been doing that all week... he he... And every few hours at that... Can anyone get more desperate...? :p
 
quick question

if i buy directly from the apple online store canada, do i really get the unlocked 16gb 4s for $650 or is there some hidden tax after?

also do they really sell it for $650 on their retail stores or $650tax?
 
Yes there's sales tax added to that price. The amount depends on which province your in. The price is the same online or in the store.
 
My phones in Sydney now so I'm hoping I can get it in Brisbane and delivered to me on Monday :)

There is a $110.37 Tax on the 64GB... So I paid $960.37...

Here in Alberta we have no provincial tax, so there's only the 5% GST.

Did you order the second the store went live..? i am talking for the people like me. The people that refreshed constantly to get our pre-orders in.

It seems like the only phones in the shipment which has arrived in Sydney are those which were ordered by people in the pre-order before it ticked over to 'delivery 1-2 weeks', whereas when I ordered, it said ships by 14th... so if yours still hasn't shipped and it was supposed to have done so in the first lot, I'd be pushing for answers!
 
i have preordered from Apple online store Germany on 8 of October and my status was 1-2 weeks and delivered 24-31. A few minutes ago it has changed to delivered 19-26!Still processing items but we have progress!!! I 've ordered 2 iphones 4s 16gb one black and one white.

i am from toronto, canada and i order a iphone 4s white 16gb on oct 7 10:30am EST. And it is still "Processing Item". Anyone in the same situation as me?
iPhone 4S 16GB White
Available: 1 - 2 Weeks
Delivers 24 Oct - 31 Oct via Standard Shipping

Yeah mine is still processing as well. Same model, color, and ship date. I called Apple though and said when i ordered I assumed I was getting the phone on or before release day. The guy offered me any free case i wanted for free and he changed my order for the case and phone to expedited shipping instead of standard. So now my delivery date is Oct. 21-28 instead of 24-31. You should give it a try... you dont lose anything.
 
I have one question... I just checked my order details... It says "iPhone 4S Black 64GB GSM-CAN"

I am a bit confused here... I ordered an unlocked phone from the Canadian Apple online store... So isn't it supposed to be a world phone... CDMA and GSM combined...?

I don't have that "GSM" part in my aus order, but I think that's a minor mistake in the inventory naming, nothing to worry

just tried to call them but i was talking to the computer, it just told me that the iphone will arrive between oct24 to oct 31, then it hanged
 
I read somewhere that CDMA is only on the carrier locked phones.

When you click through to buy the unlocked phone from apple and are on the page where you are picking the colour there is a technical specifications section you can expand that says:

UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz);
GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)
 
I just got my iPhone 4S. Yes on a Sunday in Brisbane!!! Never had a delivery on a Sunday before but can't say I'm complaining...

Siri is 50/50 half time it doesn't work with supposed connection problems but I don't have any connection problems.
 
Woo hoo! In Melbourne :) Assuming this would make for a delivery Monday. Woop.

Actually, the fun thing is I am also tracking a delivery in Pretoria (local, not an iPhone) that has the same consignment number :)

You have to actually talk to the customer representative. Just say that into the phone and it will transfer you to them. Or if i'm not mistaken you can press "0" and it will transfer you as well. Only they can make changes to your order. Good luck.
