Every phone that I have owned that I haven't put a screen protector on, has become scratched, so I think I do
Maybe it's more how you look after your phones than needing a screen protector
It was quick and easy last year when I got my 6. I went to pickup after work on launch day and there was a small queue of 2-3 people in the reservation line. Was there about 10 minutes in total. They just checked my name, apple Id and ID then went and got the phone
I had my laptop open to Apple's web site as well as the Apple store app open on both my iPhone and iPad. I keep refreshing the site and closing/re-opening the apps and got in on the app on my iPhone at 8:03. I managed to place an order for a 6s Plus 128GB Gold using ApplePay but when I checked my order after wards it showed my name but the address, phone number and email address was for my work. Even stranger the last four digits of the card were different and not one of my cards. I have no idea how that happened as I don't use my work details for my Apple account, cards or ApplePay.
I started getting worried so placed a second order using the app on my iPad and using the other payment method rather then ApplePay and luckily went through with the right address and card details. I was concerned about the first order having the wrong details and a credit card that wasn't mine so I called Apple customer service only to be told by a recorded message they open at 9:00. So I called back at 9:00 and even the customer service rep was baffled by what had happened and couldn't explain it. Anyway I cancelled that order as it had the wrong details and I had already made a second order with the right ones.
I also hadn't got a confirmation email by then and mentioned it to the rep. She told me sometimes they can be delayed if the site is really busy. Anyway she manually sent me a confirmation email. All in all it wasn't as smooth an experience for me as in the past but at least I got the phone I wanted with the 25th delivery confirmation.
P.S. Any one who wants to cancel an online order there is no option on the site yet but you can call up customer service and they will do it for you. It just takes a while for your account to update with the cancellation.

Phone customer support on 0800 048 0408 and they will do it.
They amended my billing address for me this morning.
where you can draw pictures to send to your contacts or should i say to other people with watches, although never really used it as I'm the only one with the watch
Just got an "order out of stock" email from Carphone Warehouse. Not sure if this is an automated thing because they haven't updated their stock database with the new phones, or if I ordered too late.
Still says delivery by the 25th on the website though

Just ordered one of these. Hope it fits, still if not I can return it I suppose.

The last four digits is the device account number not the last four digits of the card.
Check Wallet and Apple Pay settings on your iPhone it will show it there. You will also be able to fix your billing address for Apple Pay.
Oh yes! Bring it onI know... to think that we were tracking watch confirmation times to the second, and matching to delivery weeks was quite absurd and obsessive. Looking forward to doing it again
Ahh. That makes sense. Still the billing and shipping address contact details were wrong as they were showing as my work. In any case I re-ordred using the normal method. This is the first time I've used ApplePay to order online so I wasn't aware that's how it shows up. I do need to change the address and contact details though so thanks for that. At least I know now for future purchases online.
Edit: I went in to Passbook settings and changed the billing and shipping addresses as well as email and contact numbers for my cards.
That is something I thought/hoped might be introduced when I heard about "force touch" being on the new iPhoneswhere you can draw pictures to send to your contacts or should i say to other people with watches, although never really used it as I'm the only one with the watch
Still available for 3 week delivery which is perfectly acceptable imho. Those queuing are total nuttees IMHO especially as all still available.
I'm still undecided about colour. Silver, gold, black. Argh

Ah right. Thought you meant digital touch in general.
you would think looking at the sheer number of comments on the UK threads compared to the others we should get our apple products first as we care more
My thoughts exactly Bigrichuk!
