I've never paid $800 for something in such a frenzied rush before. I wasn't even sure if my shipping details were right or if I got the right phone .. I just kept hitting 'continue' like a lunatic :eek: :apple:

When checking out I noticed a "ship it faster" option but I decided not to go for it? What was the faster option and how much did it cost?

Yeah. I chose faster. $10 extra. Mine says "delivers 9/27 - 10/1."

NOT upgraded said "delivers 9/30 - 10/3."

So... like 1 or 2 biz days sooner. Only... 9/27 is next Friday. Maybe I get it for the weekend and my buddy (who sat next to me and didn't update) cries???
 
I am the only one in line at my local At&t store...been here for about an hour now.

For hype I think, to juice-up us fan-boys. There's no reason these days why Apple couldn't pre-prepare the content and just push it out without service interruption.

That's my thinking too. Just wanted to see if I was the only one thinking how a multi-billion dollar company can't get a site running w/o interruption. :confused:
 
An Apple employee just came out and asked everyone in line which color, carrier, and size they desired. After getting to the third person, there are no more gold/white or silver/white in any size for any carrier.

So, they ran out of gold AND white by the third person? That means they only had like, ONE GOLD and ONE WHITE device in the entire shop, on launch day? What the hell?
 
first in line at local carrier store. now if they got any gold models. any size will do as I never go over 8GB usage anyway. only one here. feel dumb of course that's only until I have gold in my hands

Best Buy

I went to the Best Buy last night at 9:00pm and I was the only one there. The emp. came out and told me they didn't get any ATT phones in. So I went home and waited. At 12:01 I went on line on my mini and got a Gold 64gig. Will be here by 10/29 to 10/2.
