Just was at Best Buy and played around with the Air (I have a pro coming today). Ugh that thing is gorgeous. Literally couldn't believe the feeling when I picked it up. I stood there for about 30 minutes debating if I should return my pro. My only hesitation is that I use my cameras to shoot YouTube videos and Reels for my business.

Ugh...
 
Well my weekend is ruined if this stays

The last couple of years the store I usually go to had two lines: one for people with pre-orders and one for walk-ins. The latter were taken as customer service reps were available, there was time, and product was available. Walk-ins had to wait a while. Pre-orders got right in. It's a lot faster to have a pre-order if you can.
At my store this morning there was a single line with multiple staff on hand to check you in or show you the new devices if you were buying without a pre-order, was only about 5 people in line in front of me when I got there at 8:15 for an 8:30 slot. The security guard on the door had the most energy out of all the staff he was cheering everyone entering and leaving.
 
UPS just delivered my silver 17 PM, no signature but he did knock on my door and hand it to me. I live in a gated apt complex.

Now still waiting on FedEx for my partners blue PM. I hate that I cant track the truck like UPS

If I'd had it delivered to my office I'd have it by now. UPS is in the lobby. If there's a next time, I'll change my shipping address for TMo before ordering because Apple insists on shipping to the address TMo has on file. It's cool though. I'm transferring from android so I need a lot more time to set up anyway.
 
It's not looking good for me. My 17PM is still stuck in preparing to ship with disappearing arrival date since last night. No updates, no emails, no tracking. The charge for taxes and downpayment which initially posted on Tuesday is still in pending status. The option to cancel the order is no longer available. I'm afraid my delivery is getting pushed to October 😬 I'm one of those who ordered thru Apple within minutes of pre-order opening that got 9/25 then changed to 9/19. Now I don't even have a date😠
Status just got updated to SHIPPED! UPS tracking has appeared but no delivery date yet. It's making progress at least. Phew!
 
For some reason I am not seeing the tracking maps on my deliveries
Are you signed in to MyChoice? If the map or “Follow My Delivery” options aren’t available, it may just be because they’re farther away from your location. It might pop up when they’re in the area

I did not pre-order this year. I woke up at 6 am and checked my apple store app. It wasn’t till 6:50 am CST when apple store around me started to show availability. I went a head and placed an order for in-store pick up. Everything went smoothly. Iphone 17 pro max 256 gb DB.
