I'm not in the window to get my wife's iPhone 6 (upgrade from a 5) by fedex and want to pick up in store. I know if I walk in to update they will activate then but what if I order online and so store pickup? Will we need to turn it on, etc to activate which will disable the 5? It's for Christmas so maybe I do it late 12/24 so she can still use the 5 and the new one can be a surprise.
The 5 has been flaky anyway so she wouldn't be surprised if it stops working but better late 12/24 than any time before then
I know ordering online it won't activate until it arrives and you turn it on but as I mentioned we are past that option for delivery before Christmas.
Thanks!
