Still showing as down for me as well. So glad I brought my iPad into work this morning!

Can you pre order at o2 yet?
Soldato
I'm not bothering pre-ordering. I don't want to sign a new Orange/T-Mobile contract for £x and then have to change to an EE contract in a months time for £y and agree a new minimum term. I'll wait until you can get it straight on EE.
I would normally just buy SIM free from Apple and get a SIM only contract, but as EE haven't announced their contract/handset prices that might work out more expensive (and I'd either have it sat in its box for a month or have to swap my O2 MicroSIM for a NanoSIM)... also EE haven't even confirmed yet that they'll do 4G SIM only contracts!

Anyone know the cost of Finance with Apple?
What would the total cost be if I took finance?

One thing just to note about T-Mobile contracts, tethering is only included in the ones with "Extra Internet 1.5GB". Any of the other T-Mobile contracts including the full monty with unlimited internet don't allow tethering.
I don't have a clue about which Orange contracts allow tethering or not.
Again, this is something that we're waiting for EE to say whether they'll allow tethering/charge extra for it etc.

Ordered mine about an hour ago.
Apple website here says both the 16Gb/32Gb ship in 2 weeks and 64Gb ships between 21/9 and 27/9. Wonder if they haven't made enough to cover launch, or just the logistics of posting out so many phones

For delivery on release day, yes. You could still potentially get one at an Apple store or other retail outlet.

Ordered mine about 10 mins ago says delivery on the 21st, what time did the pre-orders go live?
Approx 8am.
The iPhone app was live at 8 - I got my order in at 8:20 for estimated delivery on the 21st.

wow people are buying it. I'm surprised this time around as it's the first time their phone has been less powerful than the competition. Will be an interesting 6 months from an analysts point of view.

Missed the boat due to having to move money around 
Nevermind

Firstly, it's pretty much always been less powerful than some of the competition, assuming you mean the internals (just the GPU is usually better).
Secondly, it's actually not less powerful than the competition, assuming the A6 uses two A15 cores, it's top of the range.
Thirdly, most people don't really care about 'power' too much, the iPhone has always operated very well.

£529 * 14.9% APR = £607.82
£607.82 / 24 months = £25.33 per month.
Total cost of interest is £78.82.
