indeed!

I may just go do the same too! just don't want to be in a place where the app still shows a payment due when its been made thus limiting the options for upgrading.. I guess at that point it would be no different to keeping it as it is now anyway.

Just paid! Barclays show the payment made so hopefully the status on Apples side updates soon!

AirPods - im willing to give them a try. I'm in the group who have difficulty with apples standard EarPods actually staying in and not falling out. The times I've tried the AirPods in store, they 'seem' to feel more stable but clearly not done any real walking or exercise with them..

I'm in this camp too - but AirPods are fantastic in my ears! Love them and will definitely be getting V2.0.

EarPods fall out and AirPods stay in?

I've even tried this hack on my EarPods to see if it adds a little more support... https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/airpods-poor-fit-fixed.2072773/

still not nailed the tape position! have some rather cheap looking foam covers purchased to try too! anything to keep them in the ear and still fit in the case. Wing tips would just be awkward.

They don't fall out, but they don't fit properly. I think the lack of cable pulling down on my ear helps.

I'm thinking more the 512gb model.

ouch.. good luck! thought about having a larger iCloud amount and dropping down to 256g?

i'm only 50GB of 256GB but i wouldn't want to risk sticking with 64GB.

I use 127GB/200Gb on my iCloud storage) multiple devices backing up to it and family sharing.

I see the sitemap didn't have any reference to the Xr model.. maybe a different name to come or because its not launching straight away?

Planning on pre ordering a Series 4, and just updated my Shipping Address to my new work address.
There is a toggle for “This is a Business Address”, does anyone if or how this might influence delivery?

Is there a way to watch the keynote on apple tv? Seem to recall in the past they pumped it out to the boxes?

I always understood it to be down to delivery routes. I generally see two UPS vans near my flat every day. One early in the morning to surrounding business and another later in the day to residential addresses. Think business addresses are prioritised. Why it would need us to inform them of a being a business address in this day and age I don’t really know
