Apple will have something on their Public Beta website I can imagine - there will be devices running iOSX somewhere inside Apple's walls, so a 9.1 6S+ IPSW isn't out of the question. It'll just mean a bit of extra messing about once I've got it.
I would like to respectfully request that anyone who is tracking their order via Syncreon or UK Mail, and is actually getting useful information, please stop posting that fact. You're making me jealous
I do hope we get one, I have made a thread about it to see what those in other order threads say. I shall link you for information!
"An error occurred while retrieving your parcel data, please try again. If the problem persists, please use the Contact form on the UK Mail website, clearly stating your name, telephone number, email address and account number and we will assist you during normal working hours." anyone else getting that on UK Mail?
Anyone had any updates with O2 and UKMail, my tracking number still isn't working. And neither does the link on O2's website.
My tracking number on the Apple site has changed, and no longer shows awaiting collection on the UK Mail site, just shows no results found?
Anyone else?

Considering the potential numbers of people out there now doing the Public Beta I'd be very surprised if there isn't a beta version of 9.1 compatible with the new phones come tomorrow
This. I'm running 9.1 beta on an iPhone 5. Can I restore from iCloud backup to the 6S running 9.0?
Separately, re John Lewis. I have ordered a 6S. Now I'm thinking that maybe I should give the 6S+ a go as this will likely be my phone for the next three years. I might purchase a 6S+ from JL, play with it over the weekend, and return it if I don't like it (I have a work iPhone 6 for comparison). Will JL returns policy cause any hiccups with this? I'm on Three.
Thanks all!
I now have action on UK Mail website and also just received a text from them saying they will be delivering tomorrow with options to change delivery for Monday +
Nope. Apple started testing a new thing with iOS 9 though - it'll keep a copy of your last non-beta backup, incase you want to go back. The problem is, if you were never on iOS9 public you won't have one of those backups. (But i've seen reports that it doesn't work for some)
There is a guide on reddit I think where you can back up in iTunes and manually edit a backup file to fool iTunes into thinking it's a 9.0 backup - but I think you'd have to be pretty brave to do that!
Thank you. I think I may try and downgrade my iPhone 5 to iOS 9.0. It's going to be a massive PIA though.
SIM free does NOT mean unlocked! People presume it implies so, but it (in Apples case) just means the phone is being sold without a SIM.
Apple's software locks to the first SIM inserted for third party phones (i.e. not sold by them), and then you have to request to that network that they request to Apple to release the lock on your phone, even if its "SIM free". It is not the networks choice to lock it. I'm sure they'd rather it didn't and save them the hassle, which is why the like of EE etc. I believe charge £8.99 for the cost of someone having to sort it and request to Apple.
Once this is unlocked once (by Apple, hence why it has to be done through an software update), any SIM can be inserted on any network at any time as many times as you like, and it can be sold on as SIM free and unlocked. Simples!
I did it on my iPhone 5 - it's easy, go to this page and scroll down to the "Download the final version of iOS" section:
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203282
It puts you back to the latest non-beta version, and leaves all your settings and contents in place.
Still no delivery update from Carphone Warehouse. Interestingly, their stock details for the 6S Plus have all been updated to show 'free next day delivery', whereas before they had differing availability dates. The 6S is still showing tomorrow's date across all models, so I'm still (naively) expecting it to arrive tomorrow.
Really odd that they'd issue despatch information to some pre-order customers and not others. I assume it's different distribution centres working in different ways.

I've recieved a conformation email about my in store reservation this morning starting to get a little excited now.
My tracking number and delivery number on Apple.com is now the same as each other, wasn't like that before?
