I have, also. I pre-ordered the 4 last year but AT&T is currently telling me I am NOT eligible for an upgrade. So I would start expecting less.

I can't exactly remember the window prior to pre-order/launch that they reset the clock, but it seems like it wasn't too far in advance. Perhaps they'll reset things this week.
 
Anyone have the answer as to if you pre-order it the 7th if you'll get it on the 14th guaranteed? Or if I want it that bad the first day I should just go to the store.
 
Oh Canada!

So far, Rogers has ignored the launch: there is no mention of the phone on their website and I expect zero help from them and minimum assistance in upgrading. The iPhone 4 launch was a joke here and Rogers really screwed it up: I expect more of the same!

I can't say that it will be the same this year, but in years past, my pre-order phone has be delivered to my door the morning of launch day.

First time pre-ordering an iphone, or online at all.

My account at AT&T is listed under my name, but the billing address is to my mom in a different state.

Should I anticipate any problems with getting the phone shipped to a different address than the billing one?
 
When I stood in line for the iPad 2, they said that everybody was allowed to buy 2 tops. Will I be able to buy 3 if I pre-order the iPhone 4S when they are available? I need to get one for everyone on the family plan. Or will I only be able to pre order 2 maximum?

I have always got mine in the stores. I think if you pre-order though, you normally get yours a day or two early.
 
Interesting that Apple decided to retain the name Siri instead of renaming it something like Voice Control.

But it makes sense. It already sounds futuristic, and they gave it a name to personify it. It's not meant to be a new tool for using you phone, it's supposed to be a personal assistant that does the work for you. It's really cool.

And I suppose I'm in the minority, but I think the 4S is awesome. Wicked powerful, and very, very smart.

The A6 is just going to be a die shrink of the A5 with the SGX543-MP3 GPU. I guess that means it will have a triple-core GPU though.
 
I'm looking to switch from T-Mobile to either AT&T, Verizon or Sprint. Does anyone know how easy the pre-order process will be if I'm trying to change my service provider?
