Ok guys realistically, how long are we talkin for this iPhone 5S to come out? Past years analysis? A month, 2 months? 1 week? I am selling my phone and have a possible buyer but I will say forget it if it is going to take a really long time. I called a couple of my stores and they said they got 10 phones last time. 10 Phones. Like wow. I live in Canada and I guess they didn't ship that many to us.

We are basically waiting for Apple to make the phones and ship them correct? LOL

Thanks guys, I need a nice big shot of reality here. Haven't been through the Apple launch craze, like ever. I'm an apple launch virgin. ;)
 
I assume you mean how long it's going to take for Apple to get the phones out to people, not 'when is it coming out' because it's already out in that sense. :p

If you're with Rogers, you can reserve it through their website and then just sell your phone when the time gets closer... Otherwise I'd say just have a back-up phone to use in the meantime and keep checking out your local stores.

Eww, you mean a flip phone? I dont know if I can do that ... lol.. I would have my iPhone withdrawals too bad. Wow maybe I should wait. This is nuts. But it's going to take what? Like a month right?

at least. Considering the apple website itself wont start shipping until sometime in october.

Any chance any stores have them if I call around more? lol. A smaller town in Ontario? Probably not eh! One can only hope though.

I tried calling and apple is very stingy on telling you if they have them IMO. Best bet is to show up and ask
