Anyone else miss the 12am preorders for west coast? 😭Those were the days.

Yeah I was hoping that was still the case, I can't wake up that early. Usually the earliest is 8am oh well... if I can still get it ill get it
 
I wonder why 5 am PST.
I am ready. That magsafe charger is going to run out of stock within minutes.
5am allows the rest of the US (and the world) to order it at more convenient times. People on the east coast had to get up at 3am to order before they changed it. It's much more convenient for literally everyone else in the world and less convenient for west coasters and people in Hawaii.

No.
Just east coast people have to get up at 3 am if it started at midnight PST. Europe is 7 or 8 am at midnight PST.
It will inconvenient some areas no matter what.
Apple is located in CA. They might as well do it at 7 pm PST. All of Americans can do it in the evening then.
 
Yes, I have a watch alarm and a phone alarm on--yes I know they're connected, but I don't want technology to possibly mess up my goal to buy more technology.

However, it's almost four am now and I've been up for an hour because I'm all excited waiting. I tsk myself, but every year, I get all excited. For now, I've decided to embrace it this middle of the night. Getting on these forums is like getting together to sing Christmas carols or singing 'ole' at soccer games.

What did u guys do overnight? It’s a cold night in Las Vegas.
 
First rolled over at 3, never went back to sleep. Now counting down the minutes
 
I woke up about 3 AM here in Texas. Start is 7, so been watching tv and getting more and more excited. It’s just a phone I tell myself, but of course I don’t listen
 
Oct 23 delivery. Snatched up two magsafe chargers as well. Yeeepeeeeeee
 
Finally was able to place the order damn lol. The app was messing up, forget the website.

Edit: looks like I got 2 orders but only meant to get 1. How do I cancel 1?
 
Guys it was worth it!!! Goodnight friends !
