Finally, a response from O2:
So they are saying if you're lucky it will arrive on the 11th, if not, it will take up to two weeks for more stock arrive and for it to be delivered.
Looks in even more doubt that deliverly on the 11th will happen then. I suppose we will find out tomorrow!

Why oh why do I have no faith in O2 what so ever?
I still have had no contact from them at all, however my order is still on my account as "In Progress". Payment has been taken, and I got my order through just before 8:30am. As absolutely petty as it may seem, if they don't manage to get one to me on Friday, they can go and lump it. I don't care how many hits they got in 3 hours, they were stupid not to expect such demand. If they can't get the handset to me for release, as they stated when I bought it, they should not have taken £160 from my card.
Everything you mentioned above is identical to me!
I ordered around 8.30, I got no emails at all, I have had the money taken from my account, and my order status is still "In Progress".
Yesterday I thought everything was fine and I will be getting it, now I am the other way and don't think I will be getting it. The fact they have taken the money from my account p's me off slightly also, if you can;t get it to me, don't charge me for it!
Same here!
Roll on Friday!

Apparently "the supply of iPhones is going to be limited because of the simultaneous launch in 22 countries". Duh
Add that to the fact that they'll be short of White models.. it could be better to either a) rush out to 02 on Friday at 7am, or b) wait 2 weeks and see what demand is like.
As I'm on holiday for 2 weeks Friday (wooooo!) I may just wait until I get back on the chance that supply is more abundant.
That said, I'd hate to get back and have to wait for one. Argggh decisions![]()
Spoke to CPW today and was told the white version has been delayed for reasons unknown.Apparently "the supply of iPhones is going to be limited because of the simultaneous launch in 22 countries". Duh
