Just looked at tracking info from UKmail and been delivered and signed for by my next door neighbor so just have to wait till 6pm till home now
 
"Sorry, we appear to be running late"

An hour late now, never had this issue with UPS come on now mr UK Mail man I'm getting sleepy . . . .
 
Good, delivery notification from DPD too.
DPD between 12:44 and 13:44
UK Mail between 13:38 and 14:38
I normally get my 1 hour lunch break at 13:15 FML

Do you guys know if someone at the company's reception can sign for me or if I have to be in myself?
 
That's what mine did - went past on the main road which is only a set of houses away and is now driving in the opposite direction! He needs to up his game a bit too - needs to deliver 86 parcels in the next 3hrs 45 mins.
And he keeps circling my area so I daren't leave the house in case he decides to deliver early while he's near! Likelihood is next to zero but sod's law he'll arrive two minutes after I leave.
 
Mine's still sitting at the Edinburgh DPD depot. Getting it delivered to work so I'm screwed if it's after 5.30!

DPD are generally pretty good. Have you not got delivery window yet?


Got to say am glad I reserved mine in store for 8am. First time I've collected a product in store on launch day and as one of the first into the store we got all the staff whooping and cheering which is quite amusing and fun . I also got 'papped' by journalist on way out as I was first woman out!! Might be in the local paper later..............should have lied about my age!

Was doing it just for a one-off experience but think I will definitely reserve again next year too.
Our other order is due for delivery by UKMail between 3.40 and 4.40pm.

Yes - that will be fine (as long as reception are okay with that!)
I always get stuff delivered to my work reception - it's great as open 24 hours and they store securely!
 
Mine just got delivered!

Tbh, I don't really notice a weight or size difference with or without a case.
Spigen glass screen protector works fine with 3D Touch
 
Good work, here I am still sat with my 4-5 slot on drop 111! Fingers crossed for zero delays, sounds good that they're ahead of schedule.

Gutted for you but hopefully you have my driver and he will be with you a few hours early. The driver I had has a massive gash in the left wing on the van.

Do you need to set the phone up as new and update to 9.0.1 before you can set up from a 9.0.1 backup?
Yes.

Ok someone else said no, but when I got a temporary 5s 2 weeks ago I had to update it first before I could restore the backup of my 5s which was on a newer software version.
 
3D Touch seems gimmicky to me - I'm not sure how often I'm going to use the homepage icon shortcuts, it seems quicker to just tap the icon and open the app instead.

Using 3D Touch to launch the app switcher is quite handy, but at the moment I can't quite see it being much use. Nice to have though, I'm sure developers will be able to do some cool things with it!

Having similar thoughts, but from what they showed at the keynote maybe it improves (with Apple's apps anyway) over time? I'm sure it showed the 3 most recent contacts you've messaged with a 3D Touch, but mine is currently just showing New Message. So I'll reserve judgement.

I'll say this though, that new TouchID is damn nippy :eek:
 
DPD and UKMail at least seem to be giving out delivery windows. UPS are a joke - their "tracking" consisted of saying "we can't find your order" up until yesterday, when it changed to "delivered by End of Day on 25th". Oh, and it is now "out for delivery", well that's very useful to know... In what way is this actually "tracking" anything!?
