Covent Garden

No 3G left.

No 16GB.

Only WiFi 32 + 64 GB versions left.

Only about 50 people behind me now. Many left the queue when learning of the models left.
 
Just rocked up to Westfield, joined my mate in the queue & got handed a ticket for a 64 GB WiFi model. Result! I think the lower end 3G models have all gone.

Did it by text

Text the product code to number on Argos and then they ask for postcode or store number

Quality, how do you find out the product code though? =/

Dunno if the SMS thing will work I just tried them all and it says out of stock but I know our local store has stock..

That's cos it has been on another forum and i can confirm it works. I and many others have confirmation of order and ready to collect at 5pm.

Now only appearing on macrumours... too late imo.

Yeah, I've just tried a few different models at a few different stores and it's out of stock to every. but then, that may just be the case =/
 
One of the girls from work took the day off to queue at Sheffield, and managed to get me one, as well as hers. I owe her a big drink! The only downside is I won't have it until I see her on Monday. It's going to be a long weekend!

Got it in my sweaty hands - yayyyy
 
FYI John Lewis ordering just went online, if you are quick you can order for home delivery (quicker then Apple's 2-3 weeks :rolleyes:) or order for store collection (I just reserved a 32gb 3G in black, I can pick it up hassle free tomorrow from either Bluewater or Oxford St:cool:
 
Awesome!!!! Just ordered a black wifi 64gb from John Lewis and can collect it tomorrow from the Edinburgh branch! :)

And it seems that they're now sold out of both colours of 32 and 64gb in wifi.
 
Tried a few argos places in the area via the text thing and they were saying out of stock straight away, just tried again and it hasn't replied with out of stock or anything yet, so fingers crossed :)

Yeah, got the same delay :eek:
