Arrival at louisville at 1 30 am
Yup. Here too. Shame though. I thought maybe it'd bypass Louisville and come straight to CA from Anchorage. Seems like extra work just to fly over there and fly back here. Guess it has to go through the central hub for processing though.
Just received my gold DN (week 44) iPhone. The power button rattles a lot, and the home button has a loud/hard click. I can live with that.
EDIT: It turned out that the screen is fine, it seemed to me that it's yellow because the brightness was low.

My iPhone finally arrived today
The speed is amazing
Congrats, mine should get here any minute now.
Does anyone know what I need to set it up? I have an i4 on sprint at the moment. Does it automatically transfer over to the new one?
Mine just arrived, waiting till tonight to activate it. I believe you need to call a number to activate it or something? I can't recall, haven't done it since i got my 4s two years ago. I think it's a pretty simple step, whatever it is. I imagine there's documentation online for it somewhere. My 4s was ordered through Sprint and they provided a sheet with directions, but this 5s is from Apple, and they didn't.
I'll google that in a bit. Phone says ''delivery by end of the day'' it's already 6 15 pm? I hope UPS does not have a certain time cut off.
Well its already 9:20 pm and no UPS. It will probably be rescheduled for tomorrow but no big deal, ive been waiting for a long time so an extra night will not bother me.
It still says ''out for delivery''

due to a missed connecting flight mine was a day late, UPS had it on my doorstep by 10:00 the next morning, marked rush delivery or something. A week later and the exterior box is still my cats favorite new toy. Kid knows quality at a young age.

Connect your old phone to iTunes with a cable and do a manual backup. I took my old phone to the Apple Store for the trade in, got some killer Bose headphones, a case and screen protector.

Well I got mine on Tuesday and I'm already sending it back As soon as I played ANY (updated!) game, it just stopped responding to the hardware buttons. Sometimes after 2 minutes, sometimes after 30. I know this should be fixed with an update, but I really don't want the risk if it doesn't get fixed. I will buy it again if 7.1 fixes those horrid freezes and crashes. Otherwise the phone is awesome ofc.

Why don't you get a replacement instead of returning and waiting for 7.1? I haven't read about this issue before and I don't know anyone with this issue. My iPhone doesn't have it.
Woo-hoo just bought a Gold 32GB 5S (Verizon). Didn't have em in stock but it ships overnight. Will be here Tuesday.
And who said the Gold 5s is hard to come by ;D
