I've contacted some stores and I was told they weren't expecting anything until mid month. But they do have some Lightning cables...so you can get an extra one for your nonexistent i5!
FINALLY Sacramento gets some love! Scored a 16GB black for AT&T - saw it come up for both Sac and Roseville.
Struck out again for VZW in the Bay Area !! 
Do you think it's possible to order via Verizon's website and subsequently cancel if I strike it lucky via the 10pm process ?
Trying to keep my options open.

Went to best buy today to buy cases. I was determined to get the one tonight and it worked! Got black 32 gb in SoCal, AT&T!!!Already got my 'order being processed email'
Patience has paid off- returned the one that was delivered on launch day because the home button was crooked, broke down and reserved a white last night only to cancel bc i really wanted black. can't wait to finally get it. Hopefully this ones not defective!

Is it bad I'm happy I'm on ATT? When I get mine I shouldn't have a problem with finding one it looks like.
I was considering going to Verizon (I don't even have any bad things to say with ATT my employer has a great discount with both ATT and Verizon) but I think I'll stay with ATT in this case lol.

snagged a 32gb white AT&T at the Alderwood Mall store. I've always had black since gen1 but I told myself I'd take whatever was available in 32gb closest to me. White it is and I'm sure I'll be plenty happy with it.
I actually saw availabilities in Brea and Valencia for blk 32 . I almsot got the Brea one except i forgot to fill out my express payment info...doh!
Finally got one at the Tacoma mall. My friend got the same one as well.
Seems like there was a bunch around western washington state tonight.

odd.. I never received a pickup notice via email, even though my email address is correct in apple's system.
I figured my order didn't go through.. I just got a text message indicating my order from last week via the reservation system is ready for pickup... last I saw it was still in "processing"
Guess I'll be heading out to the apple store.

Just got a black 64gb AT&T ordered for the Scottsdale store. It's the first time I've seen the in stock icon for any size/color AT&T phone in AZ since the night they started accepting store pickup orders. I got busy at work and couldn't check store stock until 11pm, so I thought for sure they'd be all snatched up already.
Well, at least I got an answer to my question. The system glitched and put my order through as a shipping order instead of in store pickup. So Apple was nice enough to charge me for a phone I won't see for a month. Screw it. I'm going with a Samsung.
This will be my 6th time of trying to reserve an
iPhone 5 at my local Uk Apple Store.
Patience certainly is a virtue !

Guys,
I made a order in apple online store poland (shippment in 3weeks i5 32gb) and respective payment with credit card.Though i realized with my bank that they didnt make any money transfer. They only proceed with the payment once they send me the iphone?!
Thanks a ton

They don't take out the money yet but they do have a freeze on your account of the price of the phone.
My bank balance says I have x but y of the funds are available. Difference between the two figures being the 679 of the iPhone.
They put a temporary freeze on the money and then depending on your bank, it will be unfrozen after a few days. And then when the phone is actually shipped Apple will actually charge you.
