Also curious... Why you didn't just walk in and get one yourself and cancel your pre-order?
I would have had to line up the night before; it was still an iPhone launch day after all. My wife and I had both ordered the 128GB 6 Plus models also, and rumors were that stock of the 6 Plus were going to be low in the stores. We didnt want to be tempted to get the model we didn't want just because it was there after waiting in line all night or worse, walking away with nothing.
Oh, also we had used our Next plan to upgrade and so we would have had to cancel our preorders to use the upgrade, so if we hadn't gotten what we wanted we would have really been screwed. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
