Walked in and out fine. They even had a sign saying ask your local sales rep to see if we have your model in stock.

Yeah exactly. Maybe I'm new to this, but is there an advantage to ordering online? Every store (Apple & Best Buy) in my area except for one had stock on every variant.

But on topic, got mine this morning. The Retina display is a huge step up from my first iPad Mini, wowza!

Congrats on your ipad also! There is always going to be cons and pros depending on the region you live in. With that in mind, online ordering could be useful if your hundred miles away from any apple store. If your desperate for the product and you follow the apple trends you can find a product easily. Ordering the iphone 5s online did give me a huge advantage in getting a phone. I got it on launch day at bestbuy.

For the ipad air, I got it on launch day as well with in store pick up. For the mini, I just walked in and got it.

Yeah, as soon as I posted, I realized not everyone lives in close proximity to these stores. But I'm glad everyone is able to get theirs :)

Thanks, I'm really looking forward to getting it. Sorry for not posting in the existing thread. Most of the forums that I've posted to have a dedicated thread for shipping status...:)

I don’t know how accurate this is, or how long it will be around... but for whatever it’s worth, I checked the accuracy against one 64GB AT&T LTE model and the Scottsdale Quarter Apple store via online purchase and it showed available... so who knows...

Got a 64g Verizon LTE mini retina at the Knox rd store in Dallas yesterday. Was going to cancel my online order shipping notice today before I could cancel so I'll be selling or returning it when it arrives on 11-22.

Got my 16gb Space Grey yesterday. Since I work at Best Buy I got one of out inventory guys to hold one when they can off the truck. I traded my 1st gen mini for it and I'm LOVING IT!

I ordered at 1:40 AM after midnight when the rMini became available. I did not wait for the sun to come up. I was reading in bed that they just became available, so I ordered on the spot from my iphone 5 Apple app.
