Is it better to pre order the iphone 5 or wait in line?

Pre order. They will be out when your in line.

I'd rathet have it mailed to me than to lose a night of sleep waiting in a line…

As of right now, pre ordering will require an extra 2-3 weeks. So you will not be getting it the day of the release.
BUT there's a chance some apple stores will have extras, they usually do, so if you absolutely need one on the day of the release, i recommend heading to the apple store at midnight the day of the release.

  • When the heck is apple going to let people pre order the iphone 5? What time do you know that the will open it? They were supposed to at midnight and I've been waiting for 31 minutes now.
  • Verizon iPhone 5 Pre-Order - apple.com or verizonwireless.com? I'm planning on signing a new contract with Verizon (not currently a customer) and pre-ordering iPhone 5… Will it be best to go through apple.com or verizonwireless.com at 3am, or is there no difference?
  • Should I pre-order the iPhone 5 online or wait until the launchdate? Ok so here's the problem, I'm looking to get the iPhone 5 on a new 2year contract with Verizon & I have no credit backgroundd cause I'm 20 so I heard they would charge me for the phone & I guess like $400 cause I don't have any credit. I'm not sure how this all works or if I should wait till it comes out & go purchase it at the store but not sure if they would do all the same? Lots of answers with detail would be awesome! A deposit of what? How much?
  • Should I pre order the iphone 5? I figured this was a no-brainer, but when I went to pre-order it, they said it will be shipped in 14-21 business days. So I would be receiving it well after the September 21 release date. Will I be able to get my hands on one on the actual release date, or are they going to be sold out everywhere? I would probably be going later on in the day because of work if that makes any difference.
