    iPhone 5 Shipping/Tracking

    Well, I don't really know for sure. I checked the flights between Louisville and Seattle-Boeing. This flight is the only one that's contemporaneous with the UPS notice. It's a best guess.

    iPhone 5 Shipping/Tracking

    Announcement Day - What Actually Happens?

    Big Red Button Personally, I hope that they don't start the ordering window in the middle of the night. In addition to making it hard on customers, they would have to have their staff available in case something goes bump in the ordering process. What would be fun would be for Tim to hold up...

    Can my building mailroom sign for my iPhone?

    I live in an apartment. There is no access to the residential areas for delivery drivers. My packages are signed by the building mailroom. Is the iPhone a special case where I personally have to sign, or will the building signature be sufficient?

    Should I order accessories separately from an iPhone?

    September 12 will be my first experience ordering an iPhone (or any smartphone, for that matter). I'll probably order online from Apple, and have it shipped to my place. Should I order the actual iPhone by itself, and put in a separate order for accessories (car charger, for example)? I don't...
