Just curious what other people plan to do...

I'm used to restoring through iTunes before selling an iPhone, which is usually after i've gotten my new phone. Do you plan on fully restoring in iTunes before going to the Apple store, or do you think what Apple has you do in store (erase all content and settings) is good enough? Not sure what Apple plans to do with the phones and want to make sure none of my personal info is at risk.

If I restore before going to the store, I won't have a phone and will need to old school print out my reservation info haha. Not a huge deal, but definitely an inconvenience, especially if I find I need to use my phone in the meantime.
 
I was wondering how to handle this, too. Apple Stores have wifi so I figured I'd just do it on the spot, but wondering what everyone else was doing too.

I'm going to do the erase all content and settings in the store just in case they have to verify the serial number.
