I’m in TN and waiting outside a store as a walk-in, 5th in line. Hoping this means they are making plenty available for walkins… although I hope for you all that the preorders work soon too

If last year is any indication they will just show up randomly during the day. Got a 14 pro at ~2pm.
 
Tim Cook in NYC Apple live on CNBC opening the store. The reporter said you're going to have to come in the store to get it. No idea if I heard that right OR if that is actually true

Have we ever seen it say "In-store availability on ____"? I seem to remember it just saying currently unavailable or something until 8:00am local time in the past.
 

Your order is only eligible for delivery.​

One or more of your items can't be picked up at an Apple Store. (That’s what it says on the apple.com site)

And also using the Apple Store app. So far no luck getting it for in store pickup

Don’t think it ever had a specific time, just 9/22.

Yeah it seems like they really did switch up the approach this time. Hopefully they’ll show up today at some point for y’all

Yeah, maybe this year, they’ll just do literally in-store only For launch day. Meaning you hav to go to the store physically. Who knows.

Oh no. Did you have a confirmed order from last week?
 
Update: yup, looks like you can only go to a store, no pick ups.
