I don't want to stand in line so I want to order online and am willing to wait a few days for the convenience, but I do want to order the minute it becomes available to do so. So does anyone have any knowledge on what time exactly the online ordering will start? I called my local Apple store and they didin't know.
 
I have not heard. However, I would think that if 5pm on Friday is the launch in the stores, 5pm would be the time online as well. Maybe a few minutes earlier, but not much I would suspect.

That's what I was thinking too and it's too bad it's a Friday because then you have to wait through the whole weekend.
 
That sucks..so we have to order and wait the weekend for it? Why wouldn't apple let people order online two days before so we could get them on release day? Maybe they will?

They want to huge lines

I guess that must be it! And that's why they made it on a Friday late so ppl can just go when they get off work and through the weekend. THAT SUCKS!
I don't want to stand in a stupid line so I guess I'll just have to wait for the convenience of having it delivered to my door. Oh well. Maybe we'll hear some news in the next couple days about pre ordering but it sure doesn't look like it! :(:mad:
 
Pacific lol sorry

the rep also said they have a hugh supply in the States as i asked if it was coming from China.
