This conversation with an apple apologist will prove to be pointless. Therefore after this I will unsubscribe. Preorder or not, the date for release is the 19th. They didn't say iPhone 6 only, they sold it as iPhones. Bottom line is they never planned on anyone getting the plus on the release date unless you wanted to stand in line all day.
As for ordering through apple? Hmm well I and other like me tried very very early this morning. To no avail. Btw., so I went with my carrier because at least I could get on the site. The other point I'd like to make on your other apology for apple is this.
It may be done like this every year, that doesn't make it right. I went from the 19th to 21-28 days to now a date of early to mid November. That may be ok with you mr. Know it all, but it isn't me.
I for one and, and yes I am in the minority am sick of how they handle release dates and pre orders. You keep on taking it from them. I won't. I'll be moving on the the note 4 if they continue to tell me I have to wait until November. My loyalty has ended with this company.
Now carry on with your ridiculous drivel and support for them, while I now out. Take care all star.

See the only real problem I have with this, is that (i'm willing to bet) a large number of pre-orders were done through the app (which not everyone has access too). Due to its circulation from the internet to friends that it was the only way you could pre-order the phone (I was up until 3 AM (MST) trying anyways with 2 computers and a phone browser trying). It's not like I wanted to choose At&t as my buying place, but I had to roll the dice or face even worse consequences then waiting for Apple's site.I have no argument for the carriers...they very well may screwed the pooch on this whole thing, which is why almost every regular user on this website suggests using Apple to make your pre-orders (and any orders or services for that matter). I'd tend to say that I could almost guarantee the carriers mismanaged it, because that is what they do well...and why relying on them for Apple product purchases and service should be a last resort...and from what I can see, many people jumped to the carrier websites to order because many of them popped up BEFORE the Apple site or app. And now we see that many of the results were negative...
Perhaps some good experience for some of you to use on future pre-orders.
just got a text sayin my order has been processed
Wow seriously? I started this thread just trying to figure crap out on what was going on and to see what everyone else's experience is and status is...and now I'm getting bashed for it? Because I ordered through a carrier and am upset because even though I submitted my order minutes after pre orders started and yet get dates of mid November while others who ordered it later get a month earlier? So apparently I'm not allowed to be concerned where my $800 investment is? (No upgrade paid full price). This is actually my third pre order. Not my first. But this might be my last time here. There's no reason to be an ******* because someone is upset in a situation like this.
I got the same text, but shipping still says Oct 13-22
Just received a text about it being processed but no shipping change also. I would assume if we get earlier then oct we may know this week
