Official waiting for iPhone 5 pre-order pajama party!

I had read somewhere that you provide credit/debit card info at the time of pre-order but that you are not charged until your shipment is received.

Is this accurate?

Reporting in! Hopping on Apple.com at around 11:45 PST and clicking refresh until it works lol

I'll be upgrading from the 4 to a 16gb White. Can't wait to finally own a white phone!

I am upgrading from an iPhone 4 with 16 gb. I know that the camera on the iPhone 5 is much nicer than the 4. Will I need a 32 gb iPhone because of the larger size of pictures and videos? I currently have 8 gb free on my iPhone 4.

i think you are fine with a 16gb. with photostream syncing to iphoto on a mac you can delete photos on phone without losing them.

had 4s since launch and nowhere near 16gb filled...but i dont have a lot of music

WooHoo! PJ Party!

I believe that's how it is. They may, however, depending on how you use your card, put a hold on the money in your account. That's what they did when I ordered my MacBook.

The charge happens when Apple gives the product to the shipping company. At least that's what happened when I had to wait for my MacBook Pro Retina. So card info now, and the actual charge might go through on about the 18th or whenever Apple gives it to FedEx.

I'm hearing both will honor full price preorders. So it's all preference. I'll have both sites up for good measure.

I hope apple's site won't be crazy slow from the web traffic.

Pretty pumped about this. This is the first time I've ever stayed up to preorder an iPhone! I hope I get one

 

[wgilles]

PS...I'll be trying to get some sleep between now and 2:45ish EST. Hopefully I can fall asleep, I'm excited

Tried craigslist? That's actually where I got my 4 when I switched to the iPhone from android.

I'm being a good son and giving my mom my current iPhone.

I hope apple.com is ready for this tonight... I remember it being a pain for the 4S and then I easily ordered it the next morning via the Apple store app. Anyway, going with the black 64gb to replace my 64gb 4S (which my son will get to replace his 3GS)

Over in Boston here, staying up until 3 for the preorder! Work is not going to be fun tomorrow, multiple cups of coffee will be needed

Sadly, I have to get up and go to work in the morning. I'll be up at 4:30 to go to the gym though and I'll (at least try to) place my preorder before I leave!!

32GB Black AT&T. I am excited to upgrade from my iPhone 4 32GB. I am excited about the better camera most of all. And I am hoping it is much more snappy. My 4 has gotten a little laggy it seems. The bigger screen isn't much of an issue for me. It will be nice, but not necessary.

 

[rockerchick]

I don't think I'll pre-order. I like lining up too much! But I think I'm going with 64GB blackout on Rogers.

And I'll be here in my jammies tonight to join in the fun either way!

I've never stood in line but I think I want to.
For the first time.

I've yet to decide if I want to preorder. I'm still weighing the pros and cons of buying a 64gb at full price. I'd rather not give up my unlimited data with verizon. My poor 32gb iphone4 is practically busting at the seams with what I have on it now, so I must go with 64 this time around!

might as well just go to bed now, wake up at 3 and order then go to the gym...or back to sleep for an hour
