Verizon iPhone - 10 Feb in store pickup?

[MacGenius1211]

I will see you at somerset.

Ill be there in a black and green vintage arctic cat jacket, and a purple and green arctic cat stocking hat.

I jumped on the gf's share plan last week, been stuck using a blackberry storm for a week, cant wait to get back on the iPhone. One week without one is enough.

Thank god they let us reserve them, We were going to camp out at a verizon store in flint, but with temps below zero we said screw it.

I just hope that nothing will get screwed up. Most people don't know about the reservations and some people will be camping. I just really hope they are organized and don't screw us who reserved them.

I sure hope everything goes smooth, I havent been to an iPhone launch yet, Went for the original iPod launch, Camped for 48 hours to get it. It was nuts. I dont want to drive an hour not to get my phone. Traffic is gonna be crazy, parking even worse. I plan to get there at 6 get a parking spot. Get in and get the heck out. Lets hope mall security is up to snuff so no wonderful brawls break out over the lines. Anyways im pumped. One more day of this blackberry and it will be a crackberry in pieces. I got lucky, I threw my 3G on ebay unlocked, it sold within 15 mins.

For those picking up reserve iPhones tomorrow, the lines could still be long. I reserved my (AT&T) iPhone 4 for pick up on launch day last June. Even the reserve line was a 3 + hour wait. I came after work (because this was the only time I could get there) and was told they might not get though the line before the mall closed at 9PM. Luckily, my Apple store was offering to hold reserve phones for 1 more day. I was able come the next night and get mine very quickly. Just be prepared for a bit of a wait.

Also, I was not charged until I picked up my phone.

That's good to know, I am more worried about them selling out though.. would hate to waste a trip to get there to find out they are sold out.

Im worried about them selling out too, It seems they would have set aside all the reserved phones. And not sell them to the people who didnt reserve them. I know I will be one angry person if I dont get one after driving 140 miles round trip.

I got mine reserved too! It's more of a back up. I'm gonna go check the Verizon stores in the morning and see what they are like, who knows maybe we will be in for a surprise and it won't be as bad as we think. In either case I hope to have mine tomorrow. I just hope Apple doesn't sell the reserved stock I have never done this before and don't know what to expect.

All those fancy stores, Ill sit in the food court and play with my iPhone lol. You want to talk about lines, I camped in 2001 for the first iPod, 48 hours in line at the local compusa. By 7 am the launch morning there was over 150 people in line. It was nuts

Oh man! Haha I'm a little worried about that, I would love to get in and out but seeing as this is the only Apple store in town I have a feeling it is going to be crazy! Hey at least I'm not working there tomorrow.

If you have a reservation at Apple, they will not sell your iPhone and it will be held for you until close of business on 2/10. If you don't pick it up that day, I believe it can then be sold to the general public. At least that's how it went for the AT & T iPhone 4 release.

That's good, because I was worried that somehow they were going to mess this up and when I went around 7pm to get my poor baby iPhone they'd have sold it off.

I got to my local Verizon store at about 0705 hrs. Snowed and iced up a bit last night...I live in Mississippi, people aren't getting out too much in the little bit of snow we received. I got a report to work late text, got dressed and was in and out in under 30 minutes I canceled my order from the online store. It never processed with my debit card, glad It snowed!
