It best arrive on its own throne by the time it gets here.
Ordered a 5s 64Gb Silver on Oct 3rd. This happened on the 7th...
Hoping I dont have to wait as long as 6 days for it to dispatch, but I suspect it might be even longer considering my late order...

That's good going, considering you only ordered last week! I think there are still people that ordered on the 20th that still don't have theirs.
Probably, the rarer the situation is, the better the phone will be.
Some earlier cases changed to 'Dispatched' in 2 hours. I am pretending to be patient.

I've been going on that. If others have been dispatched hours after it's changed to 'Preparing', I thought mine would.
The wait continues...
Indeed, and if it turns out I get my phone before people who ordered on the 20th, I would be questioning apples supply chain. How is that fair?!
It's happened already! People have ordered 2 days after me and have had their's delivered already... Something isn't right somewhere.
You should probably contact them to complain, mention people who ordered after you have already received their phones.
In other news, I now dont seem able to check my order status, site just says:
'We're sorry, but our Order Status services are extremely busy right now. Please try again later.'
I'll have to point them to this forum
Yep, order status has gone down again.
So to add further insult to the fact people ordering after us are getting their phones before us (im not angry at those ppl btw, just Apple!!), now I cant even check my order status....awodweierj!dejfjoekfpekfoekfokewofkepgk;iawaierjewtjejrihfo
Hi guys,
I have a question about the unlocking process from Three.
A friend of mine ordered me a 16GB Space Grey (PAYG) from Three this Saturday with an estimation delivery date '11th of October'. Because I live outside UK I'm gonna have to get it unlocked from them.
I just want to ask whether the phone must be turned on or anything for the unlocking process or can we just use the IMEI number labeled on the back of the box?
From what I know I would just need the IMEI number and nothing else. They can unlock it and when my friend bring me the phone, I can turn it on for the first time it will get unlocked when connected to iTunes?
I want to open the box myself, you know...
Thank you!

Yes that part does look nice
They missed a trick with the iPhone 5c though. The colour of the iPhone should carry through to the front as well. To me they just look like black iPhones with a coloured case on.
Just seen in another thread they're rolling out to more countries on the 25th October, I shall be most unhappy if they haven't fulfilled our orders by then!

If I haven't got my phone by then I will take a flight to Shenzhen, China and build my own phone.

I predict this sort of response if there are still a lot of launch day/soon after orders outstanding by then:

Haha, the exact image I have in my head
the space grey 16gb on three at the moment says dispatch estimate 31st Oct and the gold 28th :s

I hope I could get mine before I go back to China for Spring festival (New year).
I know, but when it was ordered (on 5th of October) is was still showing 11th as a delivery date.
Can you help me with my questions?
Probably, the rarer the situation is, the better the phone will be.

This makes me unhappy as my 64GB Gold wasn't ordered until 15:15 on the 20th
I was hoping that all the morning orders had been shipped by now.
