Yeah, but it doesn't say on the email or the tracking website if it is next day or that. Nobody is in the the house tomorrow, would be annoying if I missed it!lets hope DHL like to leave stuff with neighbours!
I dont think they will leave it with your neighbour, it depends.
You can just go and fetch it from the depot if you miss it, or they will redeliver the next day.

I ordered from there on friday pm - when the website looked like it does now - so you should be good.
And now I have these on the order tracking (no parcel no though) - so hopefully parcel force will deliver tomorrow before work or I pick up tomorrow night :-

It took a couple of times to accept payment, not sure if it was me or them, it could have been me rushing it. Actually it's the 5th for delivery, looks like it probably was my fault since I can't even get tge date right! Lol.
That's good news MDP, fingers crossed it goes through

Do you live somewhere remote?
I get the same (just checked for lolz) I don't live anywhere remote at all.
Maybe only certain places have stock and are only willing to deliver to a certain mileage range?
Just going to wait for Argos stores local to get some in stock myself I think. (9 months interest free on my argos card)
Could I get away with 16gb? or will I wish I went with 32gb pretty quickly?

Apart from the apple store in Newcastle I've not heard of anywhere else that has had any. My local purple shirts at silverlink werent even listed as a seller on their own website.
It's a forgotten region, lol, I think the delivery drivers suffer a nose bleed anything north of Manchester.

Apple Online Store has the lead time up to 3 - 4 weeks now. I can really see why people que on launch day, at least they are likely to get one! Although they really should stop all this cheering and clapping rubbish... puts many people off! 
I know, I think this is even more popular than the iPhone 4 was. Absolutely mad.
I couldn't have someone clapping at me as I bought something, I'd probably flip.
Again I couldn't stand there clapping either, you'd have to be paying me in iPads an hour to make such a tit of myself. It's not really British like, keep that stuff in the US. Lol

Indeed. When McDonalds started properly over here, the staff had to act somewhat how the Apple store staff act, big smiles and stupid American sayings.
After a while they told them to stop doing it as it was upsetting customers!
It just doesn't wash over here.

Nope, fairly large town nearish birmingham. I imagine it's a stock/distribution thing with the delivery locations.
I give up, just going to wait until stock is more readily available tbh.
