I guess that is why his name is synonomous with jealousy lol :D

Does it matter reps on launch day we're telling a lot of people they would have it launch day and then dates came get off your high horse your on this thread also. You can't tell me it's not a little frustrating

Well it actually does matter. Because since day one of this thread, weren't people saying "Don't listen to the reps, they have no clue what they're talking about!" I had a rep tell me the other day that "Apple isn't releasing the model you preordered until November." So it's rather apparent that they have no clue what's going on or what the deal is. They're clueless reps, you'd probably be better off getting info on how your Windows OS works by one of those "Windows Certified Technicians" that call you telling you that you're computer isn't working properly.

Regardless, reps can say whatever they want, but what is in writing is what actually counts. If your window comes say 9/19-9/26 and you don't have your phone on the 27th, then make a big stink about it. Until then everyone needs to stop crying about not getting their phones, and simply discuss and post when they actually have movement on their phones.

Maybe we should start the "I haven't received my iPhone yet and my Shipping Estimate hasn't passed, but I still wanna complain about it!" Thread.

Just curious. If Apple doesn't have the supply to give TMobile, what do you want TMobile to do for you? Magically make one appear?

Go ahead start your own thread and leave us alone over here lol :p
 
They said that in Ukraine 7+ ( 256 ) will cost about $ 1500 ... ) The salary of an average of $ 200 Year on iPhone to work ) ) )

Is there another country nearby where it might be cheaper? That's pretty crazy to spend that much on a phone. Maybe in Turkey?
 
i don't understand why apple doesn't make a crap ton of iPhones like before they announce there pre order or release date
it makes no ****ing sense
like why not just make 10 million or however many is a crap ton
then release the date and be ready for the pre orders and launch date


Uhhhh, they did. They always do. But they didn't expect the interest to be as high as it was. Obviously, you've never worked in an industry where you have to forecast future costs and expected volumes. Apparently, it's easy and you have it all figured out.

CEO: "Team, make a crap ton of these."
Team: "Yes, sir! Wait... how many is that again?"
CEO: "I don't know, just make what the user kdking on macrumors thinks is a crap ton and that should be sufficient!"
Team: "Uh...ok...Right away sir!"

{Yeah! Problem solved!}

alright chill out
you and everyone else knows what i mean
or maybe why don't they make pre order date farther away from release date to have an idea of how many they are going to need of launch date
like make pre order date august 25 and then release september 16 so then can make enough and maybe give accurate ship dates
 
i understand its hard to predict future sells but didnt last year pre-order take in about 10 million phones? why not start with that?
