Got it from Verizon site! Super smooth except for...... THEY TOOK UNLIMITED AWAY from alternate upgrades. Whatever I got the phone!!!
 
no problems here ordering from Verizon. Verizon 32gb white for my wife's line. Transferred the upgrade from my line. I'll wait until next month to get mine.
 
Success!

Got mine through the Verizon Wireless website. No issues/slowness at all. Started the order a little before 3am EDT. Even received email confirmation immediately.

It was almost so trouble-free that I'm worried I did something wrong!
 
Preorder done!

PreOrder done using apple store app. No problems! Took 3 minutes. Go to go!!!
 
Got through using the site. Had issues with the app, kept giving connection errors. Finally a fairly smooth transaction this time around.

Kept my unlimited data and old messaging plan with ATT. Too bad I got nailed $50 in tax (stupid RI).

Black 32GB
 
So if you're looking to get this on a subsidized plan, should you NOT be pre-ordering through Apple?
 
Ordered 2 16gb (black and white) thru the Apple App store successfully :)

Good morning and good luck to all of you!
 
THAT WAS THE MOST STRESSFUL 15 MINUTES OF MY LIFE.

I had FOUR browsers open, 3 of which I didn't even go to store.apple.com until after 3AM (so i wouldnt have a caching issue) and still didn't get through until freaking 3:04AM.

That better not push back my delivery date DAMNIT.
 
Just completed the order on the Apple Store App on my iPhone for AT&T 32 GB version. I had a grandfathered plan, and that was kept when ordering. However, it did also say I was going to be charged a $36 activation fee, which seems wrong. I'll have to call AT&T about that. But for those worrying about losing your unlimited data plan, you won't.
 
In and out through apple.com. Some shame at waking up at 3am to order a new phone, but suppose less so than standing in line for hours.
 
Completed at Apple's website. I made sure to take screenshots where it said I still had unlimited data.

Tried AT&T and it errored out when trying to check eligibility. Apple didn't have a problem.
 
Pretty pissed.. tried apple and I cannot pay the $50 deposit for a new customer line. Sprint is not loading.. Really upset cause I'll probably not be able to get a phone on the 21st
 
Got my phone ok through apple website. Odd thing is on other computer still said apple store down for first ten minutes.

Then had to go get wifes phone and it is reserved because they cant get through to AT&T - "We are holding your reservation"
They will contact me by email when they can get through and to complete the order.
Thats kind of worrying. Not seen that mentioned here before. Will it be ok?
