Ha, I checked all the stores oop North at 6am that I could easily get to by train, but alas! Appears wifi isn't a problem to get hold of if you're vigilant though.

My online order is still processing (after briefly thinking it'd dispatched), once it's dispatched I'll probably just wait it out.
 
Just a quick one guys. I've got a 32gb reserved this morning at Apple. The store is right next to John Lewis. Is it worth getting from JL for the 3 year warranty?

My online order says dispatched but still Nov 20-22 delivery?
 
Tesco now have it in stock with £30 off immediately, though you have to be emailed the link, for some reason they haven't made it total public yet, plus collection for tomorrow in London, I think I'll stick with my currys order for tonight though.

Nothing still and its past 9am

Looks to me like neither of the big london stores got delivery this morning.

Or the apple workers havent updated the system yet the fecking slackers
 
Leeds, Liverpool, Manc Arndale & Trafford centre, not a single cellular via reserve. Spotted a few wifi 16 and 32's but that's it.

My online order is due Monday but really think I'll regret not getting 32GB today.
 
I'm beginning to think I've more chance of finding Lord Lucan riding on Shergar whilst being serenaded by Elvis, than finding a 64 or 128 Cellular.
 
Yeah. Of the early adoptors, maybe lots of people are mad for cellular given how incredibly portable the mini is.
 
I'm not sure that's it at all, i actually don't think there are many LTEs knocking around yet.

IIRC dont these ones have to go through some further approval process before being released to market?

Historically the WiFi versions of all ipads have been available a week or two before the cellular ones
 
True, the fact I've not seen a single cellular sku available, even for the briefest moment, suggest that barely even available.

Didn't someone post earlier in this thread (Glasgow?) that they got one though?

I've seen several stores with 32GB Cellular available.

Yeah i've seen the odd one available in stores like Liverpool or Manchester very briefly.

But there wifis easily available, and no sign of any replenishment of cellulars

Trust me i've been refreshing the reservation site a LOT in the last two days :)
 
Aah! Well spotted. Glad I've got my order in anyway, so it's only my own impatience I have to struggle with.

There were some cellular in Cambridge earlier yesterday - everything below 128GB - but they were gone by about three.

Hmmmm maybe its a london thing then

regent street currently only has 16GB Wifi available, i find that hard to believe if other stores have different models why would they leave the flagship with no models at all?
 
i keep checking my order status ... man its been processing items for 2 days now and no cellular anywhere in retail stores :confused:

just wondering what cases are you guys using or will be using?

I bought an Air at launch, then had it replaced on the 7th. So I have until the 21st to get a mini and compare before my return window closes. I could just return my Air, but it seems golden and doesn't suffer from any of the screen issues reported by others. Don't want to return it, get the mini, decide I actually want the Air, and get a new Air with a crap screen.
