Apple miscalculated the numbers. Not enough 6+'s.


They didn't miscalculate shite. They had problems getting the backlight thin enough to light the whole screen which lead to delays in production.

Horeshit. I ordered at 2:07am, why don't I get the delivery on 9/19?


My question would be how in the hell were you able to order 7 minutes in! I literally banged away at the site for an hour and a half!

This has been a complete mess

Ah gotcha. Yeah the carriers seem to never have enough to begin with and the problem was probably worsened by the fact that the Apple site was late opening, which made people flood to the carrier sites.

How bad y'all think the wait is gonna be if I order next week?


You'll probably get the iWatch sooner.

OK in all seriousness, based on what preorders have looked like you should be able to get the 6 (either in store or online) fairly easily if you apply yourself.

The 6+ is starting to look like another story all together. Apple will ramp up production but you're probably looking at mid-late October. Just a guess.

This is why I stuck it out with Apple.com til I got the reservation tickets when the store finally came up and worked. Verizon ordering sucks balls. They removed any kind of expected date from mine altogether before I cancelled it.

Well my email says delivered by 9/19 and the order status says shipped by 9/19. I don't really care as long as I get it early the following week.

Verizon is saying as long as your order status online says 9/19, you will get it 9/19. Ignore the email.

My one online said 10/07 at first and then change to date is not available.

What's the fricking point of pre-ordering? I could've probably walked in the apple store and gotten the bitch way earlier.

Jesus fricking Christ. 12 hours later, finally got both mine and my wife's orders in, both 6+, both to be delivered 9/19. NEVER AGAIN will I order directly from ATT.

3:45 pm.

Just strolled into radioshack. Preordered the 6 64gb black. Walked out. 3 min tops.

Guaranteed in release day. I got my last 3 iPhones preordered from RS and got them on release day

The problem seems to be with the 6+. It looks like you can get the 6 anywhere
