Used the iPhone Apple Store App. Ordered 32GB wifi Space Gray iPad pro 9.7 and Pencil. I was really torn about whether to get the keyboard case, but I kind of want to try it out in the store first. Also, I have a MacBook 12" so I probably don't really need it. Woohoo... cant wait for 3-31!
 
In germany i sadly cannot click 'in store pick up'. I see that in other countries some of you can?
 
I want to try out new iPhone SE, iPad Pro 9.7 in local Apple Store.
Don't know if it is possible in Sydney.
 



Apple is now accepting orders for the iPhone SE and the 9.7-inch iPad Pro through its online storefront and through the Apple Store app. Orders are available in first wave launch countries including Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, Singapore, the UK, US Virgin Islands, and the US.

All of the major U.S. carriers, Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile are accepting orders for the iPhone SE. Most carriers will start accepting orders at 12:01 a.m. Pacific Time, but T-Mobile will not accept orders until 5:00 a.m. Pacific Time. Big box retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, and Target will sell both the iPhone SE and the 9.7-inch iPad Pro, but it is not clear if the stores will offer orders on 3/24.

There have been no rumors pointing towards supply constraints, and as the iPhone SE and the 9.7-inch iPad Pro both use components from earlier devices, we expect supplies to be plentiful and readily available. Ordering as soon as possible is still recommended, however, especially when it comes to accessories like the Smart Keyboard. With the launch of the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, the Smart Keyboard was in short supply.

The iPhone SE is available in Silver, Gold, Space Gray, and Rose Gold, in 16 and 64GB capacities. Pricing starts at $399 for an outright purchase of the 16GB model, while the 64GB model costs $499. Customers can purchase the device on a payment plan with 24 monthly payments as low as $13.30 through a carrier or $0 down through a two-year contract.

Through Apple's own Upgrade Program, monthly payments on the iPhone SE can be as low as $10 for 24 months with the trade-in of an iPhone 5s. Older devices can also be traded in with Apple offering $12/month payments with the trade in of an iPhone 5 or 5c and $14/month payments with the trade in of an iPhone 4 or 4s.

Apple's 9.7-inch iPad Pro is available in Silver, Gold, Space Gray, and Rose Gold, a color that hasn't been offered in an iPad before. It is available in 32, 128, and 256GB capacities for $599, $749, and $899, respectively. Wi-Fi + Cellular models in the same capacities are available for an additional $130.

Deliveries for iPhone SE and 9.7-inch iPad Pro orders placed today will start next Thursday, on March 31. That is also the date when the two products will be available in Apple retail stores.

Either these items aren't very popular or Apple has finally sorted out their infrastructure. In all previous years the store (the website and app) has been very very slow and often times out.

I think the second idea is actually the right one. iPhone 6s pre-orders were huge yet the website didn't crash or anything like that (at least in my country).
 
Ordered my iPP in rose gold at 12:05 pacific time. Maybe it's good to be in the same time zone as Apple.No wait - will get delivered on the 31st. In hope that it would support the pencil, I ordered that several weeks ago from Amazon just in case they sold out.
 
Orders are indeed slipping. My 64GB Space Gray SE will not arrive before April 11th (Germany).
 
My iPhone 4 finally busted a week ago - so I ordered the SE 64GB in RoseGold.

Hopefully it'll last as long, except minus my 4 being locked out of iOS updates pretty much forever.

And Apple was right. I bought an Android for $40 rather than deal with the size of the 6s. And yes, I bought a 6s - I just personally found it too large to be running around with on the daily. But I also don't spend my life with my face in my phone.

Ordered my 16gb Rose Gold SE ... cannot wait to ditch my 6 for something more pocket-friendly! - For delivery on the 31st (UK Order)

Did contemplate the larger storage then checked my 6 and realised that I still have 6gb free from the 16gb with everything I use and the music I listen to on the handset, so there is no need for me :)
 
I ordered mine online on the UK store. I'm having it delivered to a friend who is coming out to visit me as I live in a country where it is "coming soon". My iPhone 5S currently lasts a few hours at most from battery 100% to 0%. I'll see how the SE goes and either sell it or give to my sister/mum depending on if I feel the iPhone 7 is more attractive or has better features.
