iPhone UK - Sitting at home waiting for delivery

Brilliant!! Congratulations, number 1 DHL delivery!

Thanks! I love it! My DHL tracking said it was still at the Sandwell Service centre when it was delivered. Nothing about it being put in a van or anything. So was a nice surprise. 😀:apple:

I just rang my depot. "Out for delivery" does not mean it is on a van and on the road. "Loaded onto van" is what you are all waiting for.

🙁 No way! What's with the microblogging approach to tracking? Am I going to get minute by minute updates on the driver's progress along the A127?
 
Glad I'm not the only saddo - was awake at 6 checking the DHL site - also out for delivery here from Stoke to Crewe (hopefully)

I want it now!
 
A DHL lorry and van just went by my flat window within minutes of each other...why did they not stop at my door and give me my pretty iphone?

If this is what it'll be like for the rest of the day, I might go insane!

Nice one quick question if you still looking on here and not playing with your shiny new iphone!

Did you get an email/text from o2 yesterday saying you would get it today?

And still I'd rather be pacing at home than standing in the chaos of o2 where all their systems have crashed and contracts are being set up manually. Muppets.

...And I thought it was just me too!!! 🙂

I'm managed to wangle a 'working from home day', but I HAVE to pop out at 12:20 for an hour - I'll be gutted if it gets delivered when I'm out!

I wish Me.com would bloody work too - not like Apple to release something late or something that doesn't work. I wonder if they've been recruiting people from Microsoft? 🙂 I can almost see the CV now "A proven project manager having complete work on Microsoft's Zune and Vista projects..." LOL

😀😀 Brilliant. I thought I was the only one who was going to end up with a sore neck after all this meercat-esque behaviour! I keep popping up at the window every time I hear an engine.

I am 34 years old ffs.

I'm here, watching cars going past outside waiting for the City Link van, the status is "These goods have been loaded onto a van for delivery today."

I was told it'd arrive between 9 - 5 so hopefully it's a bit nearer 9 than 5 😉

Oh, I'll guarantee you the delivery man will turn up when you're out, they always do. I'm pretty sure some of them wait for you to go out.

The bastard - I'll bet he's sat round the corner in his truck - playing on MY iPhone, waiting for me to lave the house!🙂

I suppose I should get off my work laptop and onto my iMac so I can update my iTunes and start downloading apps - can't wait to use iPhone as a remote control!
 
Well mine's arrived! But so far all I'm getting is 'No Service' where it should say O2-UK. Tried replacing SIM, etc - but nothing 🙁

I am darting between iPhone and MacRumors 😀 I love it! My first iPhone. To the question, yes I did get a text yesterday. Which was a relief. Good luck to all those still waiting. Hope it gets there soon.

...Just a thought, but have you tried loading up Mac Rumors on your iPhone. If you do it, take some pics and upload them - they'd be cool pics to have on this site and I'm sure the Mods would agree!

Good plan. I am working on that now.
