I ordered mine on the Verizon website. It said the estimated ship date was 11/30 but I received a message that it will delivered tomorrow 11/8
The AT&T customer service lady I talked to basically told me the same thing, that it would ship earlier than the date listed on AT&T.com, but I don't want to get my hopes up ya know

If you don't feel like waiting for one at an Apple store the best advise I can give is to order from AT&T. Before I ordered, I went to Best Buy and the sales person told me you are more likely to get the phone faster thru your wireless provider rather than a 3rd party like Best Buy or Target.

I want whatever coating they put on the jet black, but on raw aluminium (or space grey)
I love the contrasting colour of black screen and metal backing, but hate the slipperyness of just normal anodized aluminium.

I did order from AT&T, which I said in the post you quoted lol. Like I said, AT&T says my phone won't ship until mid-December, which is why I'm trying to find it somewhere else because I don't want to wait that long. My current 5s is slow and gets more problems everyday.

God, I hope so. I would buy that in an instant. Jet black looks so nice, but I miss my white front.

Funny you mention this, after I commented on the rumor of the all white iPhone, Macrumors posted a front page article that Apple may or may not be releasing an all white model this year.

Well, i just cancel right now my order from apple for the 7+ 128gb JB (pay in full 929,83$) to be delivered by 12/12-12/24 and buy an unicorn from Amazon... 765.01$.. (don't know how!) and delivered thursday by One day shipping. So, be careful with amazon and check with them the price is lower than apple itself and prime available if amazon is the seller (this is my case)

The only one thing is that i don't know if this is an GSM Model or GSM + CDMA... neither the operator or if is a sim-free option. but it works for my anyway being GSM.

Yes, I used iStockNow to locate it (I have the 256 GB model). Then used online Apple online reservation to hold it. Got lucky as I'd been checking for a couple weeks when it appeared.

I hope you and everyone else on this forum that've been longing for an all white phone are happy haha

If only I had the money to spend on the 256gb version lol.

Ok, surprisingly, Best Buy has faster ship times than AT&T. I just reserved one for store pickup tomorrow, but it said there were only a few left in stock and it went away after my order. So, that means either I got the last one or someone ordered right before me. If I did delivery, I could get it by next Friday. WAY better than AT&T's shipping estimate of December 1st.

So once you get your new phone, what are you going to do about your username, since you won't be a futurejetblackowner, rather a jetblackowner
