I will raise his iPhone and throw in a Sony Megadrive. Cash either way.
Is the sony megadrive still for sale? I’ll swap it for a fridge door, electrolux model.

I got my pre-order in, but it offered Apple Pay as an option. Thinking it would be quicker I went with that, but then it wanted addresses, phone numbers, etc. By the time I got it all sorted I'd gone from delivery on the 3rd to 2-3 weeks. Ah well.

I kept refreshing and as soon as it loaded up it still said delivery 2-3 weeks.

Got to the end ASAP, but couldn't remember my login password for the icloud. Clicked continue as guest but it still wouldn't work for a min or two.

Delivery still says 2-3 weeks.

Did say in a previous post that I wouldn't go for one, and with the above not working I did think fk it, just leave it.

Anyhow, it better be a good phone! smile

Ditto, got in as soon as site came up, but 2-3 weeks delivery.... something smells fishy, are the prod issues a reality?

Same here... Apple Pay didn't work at all, so had to pay in the normal way - 2 -3 weeks delivery. The site is now saying 4-5 weeks.

I got in to order mine almost instantly as the app went live. Seemed to be offering delivery on the 13th-20th straight away as I never saw any mention of launch day for the 256GB Silver model that I ordered. Went for that colour rather than my usual darker option as homage to the original iPhone, seeing as it’s the 10th anniversary and all. Yes, I am a loser. biggrin

Ah that probably explains it, went for the bigger one as I shoot a lot of pics and videos on mine.

Strange the App did't load on my phone until 8.12. Wonder why all the differences??

Yep, my app didn't go live until 8.05. The website on my MacBook was some time after 8.10!

8:05 order here, via the App using Apple Pay. Took less than 30 seconds. Still delivery 2-3 weeks, which will do.

What was worse was that Mac Rumors went down, spoiling the fun of reading all the whinging.

Used the app & got through about 8.05, 128GB black arriving 3rd Nov. Wife got through a couple of minutes laster on her app and ordered 2 x 64GB arriving 6th - 8th Nov. Another girl in the office only managed to get through about 8.20 and is having to wait between 2 - 3 weeks. Luck of the draw I suppose.
