1 and a half more hours for those who did not get one yet. Rumor has it you may not have a problem tonight if your in New York City Area.

Plus I saw personally multiple boxes of iPhone 5's being brought into the Grand Central store that were still sealed in the brown shipping boxes. What carrier, I have no idea to that effect.

Good Luck to Everyone!

Going to hope for some luck here in North Forida. I haven't seen any availability at the Town Center at all, and because its the weekend I am not expecting much but who knows.
 
Was at my local Apple store this afternoon and they must have just received a shipment because they had iPhone 5s in stock for walk-in purchase. An employees told me they are still doing reservations at 10PM. Had the white 64GB AT&T model I wanted. Too bad I am not quite due for my upgrade. I'll get it soon enough. Good luck to to all who are still looking.
 
It's allowing me to select the Pick Up in store option now, however, EVERY store in my area says unavailable for Pick Up. Should I just keep refreshing and checking the list again? Should I clear my cache or cookies?
 
It will do that but inventory won't be updated until sometime between 10pm and 10:10pm

Ok! Thanks for the heads up! I've done preorders with Apple before and I know they've allowed some through a few minutes before the official time. Just thought I'd double check to make sure I wasn't too late!
 
is inventory updated at 10 local time or at 10 eastern (nationwide)...? thats one thing i didnt understand. (im CST)
 
Would stores have received a shipment since it IS a Saturday? I wonder if they get shipments on Sundays too?

Yes they do get shipments on saturday... they use FedEx and they deliver on Saturdays.

Interesting note for those who live in NYC. Grand Central-Picked up my phone today and they stated they get shipments every day of the week besides Sundays. they reserve part of their shipment for online orders but also reserve some for walk ups when they open at 7AM.
 
Eligible for an upgrade in 2 hours but all stores in NJ area seem to be out as Apple.com states “Unavailable for pickup” next to all stores.
 
Bam! Got the white 16GB @ the Shadyside store in Pittsburgh for my Wifey. It showed up a couple minutes before 10 too.

Just picked up my black 32GB earlier tonight.. Its awesome!
 
Is there a certain point where I should give up hope for the night? It's 10:10 and none of the stores that it gives me have 32GB Black iPhone 5's for Verizon. I've been checking since before 10 repeatedly.

Had planned on getting on 10pm anyway tonight but kept my hopes up after reading your heads up - indeed, many of the NYC Stores lit up and reserved my 64GB White AT&T at 5th Ave Store :)
 
10PM (EST) sharp reserved iPhone 5 32GB Black for Verizon @ 5 Avenue store, NY.

wondering the same.. I have a feeling the cards have been dealt for the night.
 
Jacksonville had some available 12-14 days ago.
