    For those of you who aren’t pre-ordering your iPhone 5 tonight but still have plans to get one, you’re probably planning on picking it up at the local Apple Retail Store. You’ll probably have to sit through extremely long lines and screaming Apple Geniuses but the good news here is that you’ll know exactly what time the store will open now! According to Apple’s official website, the stores will open at 8:00 AM local time on launch day, September 21, with the iPhone 5 ready to be sold.

    The first wave of launch countries includes the following: U.S., Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, and the U.K. The second wave will be following on September 28 in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.

    How many of you are planning to line up for your iPhone 5 as opposed to just pre-ordering?

      Clear your cache and refresh. Apple's website was fast and painless.

      I guess people are still asleep. I ordered thru verizon.com which was fast but it seems like apple.com is just as fast

      did you really just post that much information on the internet about yourself? I'd really edit that if i were you, you have your address AND order number. God know what people can do with that info if they are smart enough.

      In the Apple Store App? Use the Apple store app if you're not people seem to be having the most success.

      Finally got through ATT and ordered after an hour and a half. Think i messed up on my plan thou! I have unlimited data which i choose. I also have 1400 family talk. So at the choose plan screen i was choosing unlimited txt but wouldnt let me saying i had to either choose the 1400(Current plan) or choose unlimited txt. Does this mean that i loose my unlimited txt or is it included with the 1400 family talk i would assume?
