    Black & Slate or White & Silver

    I reserved a 16GB black at Best Buy. The night before I got the email saying they didn't have the phone I ordered and could be waiting up to 28 days. So, I went in to the store yesterday, they had 1 extra, 32GB White.... I went with it and it has grown on me almost immediately. The style of the...

    Review your iPhone 5 here!

    I know exactly what you mean. I have had a decent number of high end phones in the past year, and I certainly agree that they all start to kinda feel the same. I have ran the gamut from EVO 4G>Nexus S>GSII>iPhone 4s>Galaxy Nexus>EVO 4G LTE>iPhone 5. Had I gone from EVO/Nexus S to iPhone 5 Im...

    Anyone else on a wait list at Best Buy?

    I am indeed on the waiting list, I did not preorder. My hope is that there are just a few people ahead of me, allowing me to get a device tomorrow as iPhones are typically shipped in boxes of 10. If not, its not the end of the world.

    Anyone else on a wait list at Best Buy?

    I'm on a waitlist as well. Knowing best buy as I do, I have little confidence that I will get one tomorrow. I have myself at about a 45% chance to get one. However, I was told that there are only 3 preorders ahead of mine for the sprint model.... So who knows...
