Lucky for you, DHL are in the process of taking UK Mail over!
Are the Apple Genius Hype Beasts there making sure you're all shouting and screaming like little girls at an NSync concert so it's just like it is in the Apple promo vids? Or is it a bunch of middle aged dudes standing around awkwardly looking at their phones after the initial 'Alright mate?' to the guy in them after first arriving?

I didn’t even say hello to anyone in the queue. I am not a Apple guy despite loving the iPhone
Really hate the cult like status Apple has

The round of applause after every single sentence during the reveal speech thingy was a tad annoying.
Are you at least going to walk out of the store with the box in your hands, raised above your head like a trophy so you can show to the world that you're so proud you managed to battle and survive an orderly que of 40 people to get a hold of a launch day device?!
You realise they all seed employees into the crowds to do this right? The press at the events are too busy blogging to cheer.
Watch has arrived, now sat charging and waiting for the phone to turn up. 
DPD's tracking functionality now can't find my parcel, so I'm hoping that's it being loaded into the van and I'll get a map telling me I'm the first stop. #AndMonkeysMightFlyOutOfMyButt

I had that too, useless.

I got out of the store, shoved the phone in my bag and rushed back to work haha. Brought my iPad to work so i could set it up quickly.
First impression. It's not nearly as unwieldy as some sites have made out

eSIM is physically soldered to the circuit board in the phone, Virgin don’t support eSIM, only EE and Vodafone.
I can't stand the reveals mostly because of the crowd. The one that really annoyed me was when I got the iPhone 3G. It couldn't send MMS to begin with and when Apple finally added the feature the crowd went nuts as if it was a brand spanking new innovative feature.
I wonder how it works, can a user sign up for a "simless contract" as in non physical? When my phone arrives can I call EE and say "Hey look I have an eSIM phone can you activate it please?". What details you pass over - do eSIM phones have a build in sim card number?
I know that but like I said if I buy the phone through Virgin (and use their actual sim) do EE have a sim only plan which uses an e-sim? Or if do I have to buy the phone through EE to use them as the e-sim, etc
@uvarvu gets my point
