My UPS driver mentioned about how many people weren't even home for their delivery, must've been lots of no shows = time consuming waiting at each door for a few minutes really add up when their delivering 100s of these babies
I'm just syncing to iTunes. It wants to update to 7.02 as well so still going through the setup process.
I got my Moshi screen protector on right away and installed the Apple leather case right away. Booted it up and it asked for my SIM so I had to take off the leather case to insert it. So much moaning in the forums about how hard to remove the case so I was nervous.
It's dead easy!
As I read somewhere on the forums, put two fingers on top of case. Two thumbs on Apple logo and push on Apple logo. Case pops right off with little effort.
I've been rocking the 4s for so long and did use a 5 for a while at a former job. This phone is so sweet, especially with the Apple case. Can't wait to play.
Worth the wait guys. It's been fun traveling the globe with all of you.

Like you said, you have a 5s already so not all bad. I've been disappointed by UPS countless times as well, but they came through this time.

Last year, the delivery missed the day, and we found a pick-up notice the next day even though we were sure no one rang the bell. Anything can happen with UPS
Second one just showed up. Seems to me to be pretty inefficient to send two different trucks to the same address a few hours apart...
Enjoy! The universe must know I already have one so it's sticking it to me.
Call apple and tell them you have been on this forum and many of us have received our units while you haven't and it's past the 12pm agreement and ask if they can compensate you. You might be able to get a free case or something
Ugh, I missed the delivery. The UPS guy apparently came ~ 5 minutes before one of my roommates got home. And despite what I said earlier, this time they decided *not* to just send it to a UPS Store.

I got mine today in Waterloo, so lucky. But just curious for next time I order something - what happens when you miss the delivery? Do they try again next day? Take it to local hub?
They will try to deliver it again two more times. If that fails they'll give you a little note for pick up at the outlet.
Or if you know you're going to miss it, call or on the tracking page change the delivery to pick up so you can just pick it up at the outlet.
Yeah, this. I missed the second attempt as well. The UPS guy always seems to find a way to come by in the 10 minutes between when my roommates leave and I get home. Oh well.
I asked UPS's Twitter people about it, and they told some UPS facility guy to give me a call today who would see if they could deliver my package to the UPS Store, rather than the middle-of-nowhere warehouse. That guy hasn't called (yet), though.
The notice they left indicates that they will make a final attempt tomorrow.
Eaton Centre location in Toronto hit the mother-load of shipments this morning. All colors, 32GB/64GB. Most amount they've ever received. They sold out of Silvers in the morning. Have a couple Grey's left and a ton of Golds FYI. Picked up a Grey and a Gold this afternoon. The employee handling the line has a stack of cards.
That's impressive. Hard to believe they actually had gold. A lot of hype over that colour. Apple must be catching up.
