I work in Piccadilly and finish work at 5.30pm. Was planning to head over to Regent Street too and join the MASSIVE queue. Here's hoping that you are right and I will get one! I'm not holding out too much hope though. Placed an order online last night at 1am as a backup option.
Got a tip for us?

Many people behind you?
You beat me to it, also going to find out about Best Buy in Hedge End, as their head office said they should have 'quite a few' come in?
1!! there's only 4 ppl in the queue...
an elderly guy came earlier... stood for 10 mins, then asked why we were waiting.. i said we had to wait till 5pm... he grumbled and walked off!! lol
Think about what you're asking and ask yourself why the hell someone would know that?
Yep! Unless my boss suddenly has a personality transplant and lets me leave earlier than I asked for, 'fraid I won't be getting one today! Wonder how often stores are going to have deliveries...
If they start doing what they did in the US, what stock is received one day is releasedthe following day. ie What they sell today will be what was delivered yesterday, and what is delivered today will sit out back until tomorrow, and so forth.
Finally got into 'Order status' and it seems one of the orders placed last night that gave the error message was successful! So 3 orders placed currently... Makes me wonder how many other people have had the same thing - error messages concealing successful orders...
So 3 orders placed currently... Makes me wonder how many other people have had the same thing - error messages concealing successful orders...Hmmm that doesn't make sense. Why would the stop selling knowing that they still have stock in the back?
I hope you're right as I plan on making a trip to the Apple store Saturday morning!
Just walked past Glasgow Apple about 20minutes ago, there was about 100 or so people(I didn't stand and count, was crossing the road xD)
Popped into John Lewis aswell but they haven't put stands up yet and the guys were busy talking so just walked on. Will check again later.
But it looks like the Apple Store will def be a nono by 3pm...
