I ordered mine at 12:01 got the conformation email at 12:08. Looks like our phones will arrive on Monday (thats what UPS have for me on their tracking page). I hope that this is accurate tho, because i have to arrange for someone to be home as i will be at uni.

I got the confirmation email at 12:01. It might change (others have), but realistically, I don't see it.

Mine will go to the Southampton depot. As there is an airport there, will it be flown to there or not?

Monday is fine, its only a few more days having waited a couple of weeks anyway. I'm not sure where it goes before getting to here in the UK. I ordered the Gold 32Gb.
 
7:58am OUT FOR DELIVERY! I'm so happy! Well done UPS! Woooo! Just hope I don't miss it now! lol :D
 
UPS Delivered mine at 08:30 this morning (amazingly whjile someone was in) :)

UPS Still suck though
 
Since my order is set for Monday I'm going to give away my 4s to the gf and head to work phoneless. Not that anyone is going to phone me anyway.

Not going to enjoy the iPad mini waits due to the super low stock in retina displays
 
Hey, I haven't actually posted on here yet but I've been lurking for weeks following everything and it's been really helpful thanks.

Just thought I'd share that I was just at the Cambridge apple store - no golds or silvers (space grey only), about 20 people in the queue. All one big group of scalpers who knew each other apart from me and two others.

I thought Apple said they were increasing gold production as they hadn't anticipated the demand? Surely the imbalance between the white and black fronted models should have corrected itself by now?? I'm looking for an unlocked 16gb gold and it's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

It will be sent via a delivery truck to Eastleigh depot. There are no freight flights to Southampton Airport. Hope you get yours soon tho. :)
 
The flight at 11:40, goes to Dubai and then on to Philadelphia. So if it's on this flight, it's going the long way round! :p

They're probably on this flight.
The plane stops in Dubai and then goes to Philadelphia, the odds are that some cargo are unloaded in Dubai (our european iPhones that is)
and then load to a different UPS plane in Dubai.

Now assuming there were indeed on the 11:40am flight from Hong Kong to Dubai, they are expected there around 16:00 local time (13:00 uk time).

Then there is a UPS cargo flight from Dubai to Cologne on 17:50 (14:50 uk time).
Fits perfectly ;)

All we have to wait now is a scan in Dubai around noon to confirm this plan
 
Just wondering if there'd be any chance we get them tomorrow. Been waiting since march for this phone to come out, stuck using an iphone 4 with broken lock button and dodgy home button. It's so frustrating to use. Haha

Edit: we're on the same flight too!

i've been without a phone for almost 2 months now, the phone cant get here fast enough now..esp. now that i'm going on a trip on monday :rolleyes:
 
Everything but 16gb gold at Festival Place Basingstoke this morning!

32 gold and 64 silver bought and online order cancelled

Does that mean there's a chance we'll have the phones tomorrow?

well done. i was just about to say, that cargo might be unloaded in dubai and doesn't have to go to philly.

i expect ups to arrive in cologne by 21:30 uk time as dubai is about 6hr 30mins away from cologne
so... 14:50 uk time is 15:50 german time + 6 hr 30 = approx. 22:30 german time (21:30 uk time)

:D
