bitserf: Think this happened last year as well, was only in the wee hours that ordering opened up.

I guess 25 October for them means 25 October in Cupertino :/

Oh? That is 20 hours from now...

It will probably be earlier than that, more like when the bigger countries in Wave 2 wake up I guess!

Good luck, I'm off to bed :)

jarledb: That is a bad deal for sure. Buy it from Apple and you will be able to use Apples excellent services for support. They are replacing my iPhone 5 because of a flimsy power button and I am having a replacement delivered on my doorstep.

You can still use Apple for support if you buy through a carrier. I lined up for my 5 at VF Akl last year and every time I've dealt with Applecare.

Think the Apple store for NZ updates on Aussie time, so it should be 2:00AM our time.

Since we're served by the Australian store, it could be that when it comes to online orders, it'll be midnight Eastern Australian time, currently 3 AM here.

I believe the 5 went on sale on the apple store just after 1am last year? --About 1:15. Who knows if it will be the same again this year...

Can I whisper the colour to you?

*whispering*: gold

64 GB. If you have a smaller size and like doing photos and videos on the iPhone: Get the biggest size this time. 120 fps video is not going to take less space...

Getting 64GB gold and another 64GB silver.

I want to be able to sync my lossless music to the phone without converting to MP3.
