Just went on and reserved the iPhone I pre-ordered for pickup today at my local store. Cancelled my pre-order so hopefully everyone else can move up a spot!
Just did the same. Cancelled my order and placed an order for instore pickup today. Every apple store had inventory around me this morning. SG 256 IPX. Was a bit panicked cause I canceled my order then it wouldn't let me place a new one. Took a few mins before they released my phone number to be able to order again.
Yeah same thing. Was worried I’d need to get ATT to reinstate my NEXT eligibility but no issue.
So - canceled both of my orders to pick up instead in store today.
Seriously - way to prioritize preorders, Apple!

Canceled my preorder to try to pick up in store, but the web site is still saying I have an order. How long this take to clear up?
EDIT: Took about five minutes. Fortunately, this Apple store, while not the closest to me, is only about 35 minutes away. Pickup this afternoon. Hope my cancellation helps someone!

No change in my shipping date. I can’t go to a store anyway as I’m out of the country. Can’t contact Apple chat as I’m out of the country as well. What’s the point of Apple chat if they won’t chat with you as you’re in a different location even though your Apple ID is for the US?
Just checked my local Apple Store via app - they have my model in stock today. I was able to purchase for pickup this afternoon. I'll be hitting the "cancel" button for my original order with vigor once I get the "your item is ready for pickup" email

How did you do that without canceling first?
Woke up at 2am, app failed me till 2:10, finally got a reservation #, placed another order thru safari. wasted 1 hr, paid in full, date: nov17-24. Apple failed!!
Woke up today at 9 am, went to istocknow.com, phones available everywhere in DFW, cancelled my orders, placed 2 new orders for 10 am pickup with apple IUP. This is what I have always done, istcoknow--> same day pickup and have always been able to get new iPhone every year on day3-4 after launch, and now on IUP it shud be relatively easier next year.

My preorder still says Nov 17-24 delivery. I checked the app if there were any 64gb Silver T-Mobile for pickup. Luckily, it was available for pickup today at 7 of the 12 Apple stores near me. I’ll cancel my preorder after I pick up the X this afternoon.
Do you have to give them account information if you don’t have a Verizon account? Or you can just ask for the Verizon model and say i want to pay in full and that’s it?
I should have noted - I have multiple lines on my account, not all of them are being upgraded - so I used one of the other numbers, and will switch SIMs after activation.
Seems like Apple put a priority on in-store availability - I checked istocknow out of curiosity, and there seems to be a lot of green markers across the US.

I'm curious about that as well - I tried buying a Verizon model without an account via the App Store app (for store pickup) and it required an account, new or existing.
Just say you want the Verizon iPhone X with whatever model specs you want (color/size), when they ask how you want to pay for it, just say "Pay In Full", Sometimes if the sales rep is confused, "Device Only" is what it is called on their terminal.
Sticking with my preorder for now. Still 17th-24th with no movement.
Let's see how many weeks a person who stayed up to the middle of the night and plopped down $1300 for a "preorder" within one minute of the online Apple Store reopening has to wait, while the phone is widely available for people who simply walk into the store.

No Apple stores… (or is it town halls now?) in Ireland. Couldn’t get into the app until 5 minutes past. Pre Order went through 7 minutes past and is for 15-22. No change since the 27th.
