Totally agree - form their point the sales cycle of that product is 12 month - so they are pissing away a whole month of that to have it sit in their stores - pretty stupid

It also probably has to do with manufacturing. The ones sold in Apple stores/Target/Best Buy have an Apple SIM which can be activated on any carrier. The ones sold by the carriers have a carrier specific SIM. They probably didn't start packaging carrier models until after they placed orders.
Again, another guess.

Are you sure? I haven't purchased direct from carrier, but I thought the carrier models had carrier SIMs already attached to your plan, especially if you finance it. The link you provided even says "select" models, not "all" models.
My LTE model ordered from Target was delivered at 6:30AM. Never had something dropped off that early before. AT&T order has been cancelled.
Congrats! Let me know how the T-Mobile plan goes.
As of now... I'm currently signed up for the 5GB plan for 10 bucks. But since I don't have a cellular plan I'm unable to get text message from the number T-Mobile have given me when I signed up for my data plan.
On their end I have the correct plan, but I have no way of viewing it since I cannot confirm my account with the code they sent to the T-Mobile number. I had called & they still don't know how to resolve my issue.
Yes. I'm almost certain that is legalize to ensure that people do not belief that their wifi models are capable of LTE.
The Apple SIM is just like a carrier SIM except that it is registered with the local carriers and allows one to flip flop between them unless you choose AT&T in which case it locks the SIM. This isn't really a big deal as you can go into an Apple store or online and order a new Apple SIM or pick up one from the carrier of your choice.
I'm sure someone on here could eject their IPP SIM to show you but on my iPad Air 2 (purchased through Next), it's an Apple SIM.
Are you kidding me? Why in the world would they do that!?!?! I hope to God they don't do that to me. My work doesn't have a Mail box so they don't deliver here. Ill never get it.
I have never had to wait this long with AT&T launch. They ALWAYS say it will be a month or so out and then I get the next week. I guess Ive been spoiled at this point. Blows my mind really. I was able to track down a pencil 2 weeks ago at best buy. But still no pad. I have my screen protector and a case. Still no iPad. Bummer. Maybe it will ship tomorrow. Hell even ordered a Stainless Link Bracelet for my Apple watch from Collete in France when they were doing the half off sale and got that yesterday.... FROM FRANCE!
To be fair I ordered the morning of release. AT&T canceled because they could "verify my identity" Couldn't reorder without going to the store. So my order date got pushed to the next day 11/12/2015 @ 7:16 CST. Shows ship date of 11/27/2015
How come some say In Progress and Some say Preparing to ship?
Mine has said preparing to ship this entire time except maybe the 1st day, can't remember that far back
in the same boat... mine was placed earlier.
SG 128gb LTE
sorry hit the wrong button I ordered my iPhone on 11/11/15 at 7pm my ship dates were 11/25 to 12/3 today I was online with order support or whatever they call it when I was informed that my order was back ordered and they had no idea when it would ship needless to say I am not a happy camper nearest Apple Store is three hours away and everything around me is sold out
Just talked to ATT - excuses galore - it's back ordered - that's it - no more info and then she HUNG UP!!!!!
