glad yours all went smooth... mine did not.

It kept giving me errors due to the pickup times being taken, even though I checked out as fast as I could. Then eventually the app just gave an error in general so I could no longer check out at all, so I switched to Mac. Pickup times again got taken before I could checkout. Finally after refreshing all the pickup times were suddenly gone all at once, and I had to settle on Feb 13-16 delivery.

You and I are very similar - hitting that magic age of 60 this year and retiring in 2 years so why not!

My recent tech purchase was an EV so this is my second expensive recent purchase.

BTW I had to forgo the prescription lens upload as my eyes haven't been checked in awhile as it hasn't changed much.

Hoping it will work without the lens inserts as I have a very light correction....

All set -- ordered both 512GB and 1TB models for launch-day pickup. I will cancel one, but I got worried at the last second that 3D movies and apps will be insanely large and that I'll run out of storage. Ordered a Travel Case separately once I saw that was available.

Can't wait!!!

sure most will stream vs download but if you travel a lot it would be nice to have the space to download and 3d doesn't add to much to the size of the movies how big are iTunes 4k movies now ? that's the big thing up to now 3d movies were 1080p only

Ran into a bit of trouble as my order was being errored out due to the time slot no longer being available. Managed to get one for pick up on Feb 3 in grand central though. Think Saturday would be better anyway :)

Anyone surprised by their band size? It selected medium for me. I thought I had a bigger head 😂.

Right ?

I wear XL 7-3/4 western hat and Apple says MEDIUM for both knit and loop bands.

I'm genuinely really sorry to hear this, I know how frustrating that is. Hopefully with enough cancellations or second-thoughters your delivery date will get moved up sooner. I would also recommend checking your local store's pickup times when you can as we get closer -- sometimes more spots will open up (might not be on Launch Day, but a few days after when they get their next shipment).

noticing a theme here. I may be retiring in a few months too. Except mine is semi-involuntary. My company is getting bought out and I’m unlikely to survive the cuts due to my level 😥. I bought this to “escape” my wife 😂 (I’m joking).

Ah that's a real bummer man, I know I'd be furious at Apple, the universe, higher powers, etc. if that happened to me. Sending my sympathies! Hope time passes quickly for you between now and the 13th-16th.

I'm guessing I had less luck because I'm in the Austin area where a lot of Apple/tech employees work, though it was weird that all the pickup times across Texas suddenly disappeared at the same time—even in SA/Houston.
