I keep Apple's website open at my desk at work and I have been checking the website at least once an hour minimum since Monday 10/3 and have not seen ANY iPhone Pluses in my local store or any store within 90 miles, which includes Chicago. I'm surprised they are not getting at least a few each day or every few days. My local store told me as soon as they are checked into inventory at the store they appear on the website as available but I'm having my doubts. Are they really in that short of supply? I'm coming from a 5S and want my 7 Plus! (Impatient rant over)
