Wow, everyone here has ordered either a 32 or 64gb phone. Boggles me how anybody can pay that premium for storage. I ordered 3 16's in every color. Y? Because I can't even go to our apple store here and compare the colors, or telus or Rogers or bell. So, I had to order all 3 and return two. Sad but that's how I'm forced to make an informed decision.

Anyway, back to the storage, I will make due with 16 on my phone, now iPad, that's a different story. Could use 128 on that after u load up some HD movies. But seriously, what do you need all the space for?

It's the other way around for me. For my everyday device (iPhone), I don't want any hiccups when I'm out and about. When I need to download a new app or a catalog or video or whatever, it better have space right there and then. For the iPad that I use at leisure, however, I can get by with minimum storage. Just need to manage it from time to time.
 
At least you've been having some sort of movement on yours, my Calgary brotha. What model did you get?

16GB Silver. You?

I had a 64GB 5 (before I sold it last week) and primarily filled it with music, although as others have said, photos & video can add up too.

I'm getting a 16GB this time around cause I wasn't eligible for a subsidized price through work and the funds received from the previous sale warranted my decision. However, now I have (or will have) an unlocked I can sell when the 6 comes out next year and get max capacity on contract.
 
Shipped

What time did you order it and where is it shipping to?

There is hope. I just received the shipment notification for my 64gb Silver IPhone 5s. UPS is quoting Oct 2 for delivery (originally it was Oct 8-11) in Calgary.
 
SHIPPED! !!!!!

Delivery Oct 3 in Calgary!

Funny, I had just pulled up to Chinook Centre to see if they got anything in and thought to check my status on a whim. Didn't bother checking since its en-route.

Same here!

Got a email from Telus that my 5S silver 16GB has shipped. Sent it Canada Post so it won't be here until Monday. Wish they used Purolator like usual.
 
Finally switched over to preparing for shipment. 64GB space grey. Delivery date hasn't changed though. Still Oct 10-16. Oh well, hopefully it arrives early!

Identical phone model and status update for me as well, delivery to Calgary. I feel the same was as you re: dates.
 
Ordered 64gb silver from Telus on 9/20 and I just got a shipping notification! Says it'll be here Monday :)
