If you are awake like I will be tonight when the pre orders are supposed to go live on Apple's site (along with the carriers) and you want to pass the time, post here!

We'll have a bunch of iMore writers and forums staff here to chat with, and we'll give away some accessory prizes to people posting in this thread.

What better way to wait?

Everyone know which carrier, capacity, and color they're pre-ordering? Sound off, and good luck!

I'm probably getting 32 GB Black. It's a maybe though. Not big on the impulse buy thing.

[KJowers]

[DaPhoneking]

Ahhhh yeah your broman is here. I'm not preordering but I'm here to keep you entertained lol

[fordgirl14]

I hear you on that. 6 hours and 15 mins to go....still trying to decide whether to go with LTE now that facetime works over cellular. Most definitely going 32gig though.

managed to sell my ipad 2 white 16gb for $375 last week and looking for the 16gb or 32gb in black... not really sure i need the extra space ...

[tourstagefan]

I went with the Black iP5, think I'll go with a White Mini. Esp. since white makes everything look bigger and the bezels are thinner than on other iPads.

[amynunc]

Is the pre ordering beginning at 3 am EST?

[dfine1966]

I am going to buy my daughter the White iPad Mini 32 GB Wifi at 3 AM ET just like I did for the iPhone 5. I might take a nap from 11 PM to 2:50 AM. Plus I am watching tonights Vikings vs Bucs football game.

[LSglock89]

Are accessories going to be available for ordering during the pre-order? Like a Smart Cover?
