Waiting for iPhone 6/6+ pre-order pajama party!

[cversion7]

Just moments ago I was finally able to complete pre-order with Tmo. I have been trying all day. I can now rest easy and just wait impatiently for my package to arrive.

Has anyone heard if it's true you can use the T-Mobile or AT&T models now with Verizon because of the VoLTE support?

All Verizon iPhones come factory unlocked. Therefore can be used on GSM. My 5s out the box worked with my friend's AT&T SIM card, with LTE and all

Can't believe this thread has 68 pages! It has even more than the waiting in line threads!

Depends on how prevalent it is. Apple has a habit of bringing out great things that don't really get adopted (look at Passbook).

I like the idea behind it. From what I saw, it would be a very secure setup for the common hacks.

1) Stolen cards/numbers at the restaurant etc. No cards to make a copy of. One time number can't be used again elsewhere. But I'm wondering how they're planning on dealing with the actual payment. No way I'm giving up my iPhone 6+ to some waiter to take to the back room/drop.

2) Hacks that hit Target and Home Depot. By providing essentially a one time number for the charge, you don't have to worry about the number living on misc servers with questionable security practices. Even if the number gets out, it can't be used.

3) The main concern is Apple security. Being the single holder does leave Apple itself open to hacks. They get in a situation like Target/Home Depot was and get all their accounts stolen, it would be a major black eye.

Good points

The waiting in line threads may pick up when people start waiting in line though. They usually get crazy and are fun to follow the night before launch.

Just checked my credit card i used for the iPhone 6. It was charged late last night. If I remember correctly Apple won't charge the credit card until it is about out the door. Can't wait.

My Verizon 6+ GB space gray will be here 9/19 it said. Must of gotten lucky! I placed my order around 3:05 am ET. Anyone else getting the 6+ delivered on 9/19?

Yup. Ordered at 2:04 CSDT from Verizon site. Just got my confirmation email overnight indicating 9/19 delivery. First time anything has gone right for me with Verizon.

Your new sig is hilarious.

I wanted to say something about waiting breathlessly but I thought better not do War and Peace.

How do you guys turn those shipping alerts on??? I'm on verizon and can't figure it out even though some people have them. It's not a big deal, just me being impatient as usual.

Did you barely pre-order or did you pre-order on the 12th?

I didn't preorder and now apple says 7-10 days to ship. Anyone have any experience with doing an in store pickup on day of launch? I would use the app rather than stand in line all day.

You won't be able to order on launch day for in store pick up. If doesn't show for your apple store for in store pick up now won't on launch day. Will have to wait in line.
