I ordered through the Apple store app on an iPad with no issues. Both my wife's and mine. 2- Plus 64g
was thinking about coming from android, so i had no iphone. they lost some android converts last night/this morning. no worries. just figured i try something different without being sure that i really wanted to.
When I ordered much earlier this morning it said that I would get it on Sept. 19. The order didn't go through and Apple indicated that they reserved one for me as long as I complete the order within 24 hrs. Does this mean I'll still get it next Friday?
You shouldn't have. This happens every two years when the new numbered iPhones hit. I always order online in the morning. Just preordered a 6 and a 6+ from AT&T. Two reps assured me that the 6+ was in stock, even though it shows shipping at 21-28 business days. The trade-in is on their website now, too. $200 for 4 through 5, $300 for 5s.

I now had three reps verify the stock. I'm not holding my breath, but that's a pretty fair conformation.
Just went ahead and preordered through Apple site. Went with the 6. Not interested in the phablets but I'm sure it's a nice phone.
The t-mobile promotion to match doesn't start until the 17th. Should i wait until the promotion goes active to order the iphone and trade in the 4s or should i pre-order now and see if i can get the trade-in applied once the promotion starts?
