Still cant buy 7plus anywhere in Germany. Apple.com/de itself is between 3 and 5 weeks delivery. I really miss the old Apple where someone would put some thought into releases.

Wonder what comes first - iPhone7 plus or new Macs bases on last years Intel CPU.

I really don't understand why 7 pluses are still hard to find.
What happened to that report that said every Apple Store will have every configuration and color in stock on October 6th??

How can Apple launch the iPhone 7+ in these countries without any inventory? Or will it just go straight to 6-8 week shipping times?
 
WOOOO!! Five weeks, one day and counting Apple! Still waiting for my 256GB Jet Black Plus over here in the UK. But sure, go ahead and release a phone you can't readily supply to 50+ other countries, most of whom are still waiting for stock and just chuck couple more on the pile!
 
It is ridiculous - they can't supply the existing orders and now they start in even more locations? They have lost the plot if they think customers are happy to wait over two months for a phone (which is the current state with UK networks).

With elephants and zebras exceeding the human population there will be enough stock available in Botswana.

Looks like if you want that iPhone 7 plus jet black 256GB, you'll need to cancel that business trip to London and schedule in a holiday to the Moremi Game Reserve.

You'll have a great time there. Genuinely nice people, great tours and stunning beautiful vistas. After visiting the local Apple shop you can directly check out the dual camera bokeh function in the jungle.
