I'll make you a deal, you get the phones first and pay what we pay, we get them last and get to pay US prices.
Time zones... how do they work?
It’s really not hard to say, USA launch day.21st, world 22nd.. I mean really, where was the very first Apple store put in?!?!?
Interestingly, Japan’s iPhone prices are fairly close to US equivalent. One downside is that you can’t turn off the camera shutter sound.
If anything perhaps Taiwan should get them first, that’s where they are being shipped from, after all...
It’s how the world works. It’s only a few hours. It’s about to be midnight in CA, go take some zzzquil and chill out.
My phone is coming tomorrow but I won’t be able to get it until Monday. Now that sucks
Come on, it is clearly just a dream. But why can’t you get it till Monday, out of town?
True! Ok Founded and operated in CA and built in Taiwan. Split launch and branch out...

Ya but it was founded HERE, stay away!!
Why can’t we have both, cheaper prices and first to get it.. god I sound like such an American!
Haha...yes you do....I sound like such an American!
