iPhone 6 Begins Shipping to Customers for Sept 19th Delivery

Saturday September 13, 2014 10:44 am PDT by Arnold Kim

Apple began accepting pre-orders for the iPhone 6 on Friday, September 12th. The first of those orders are beginning to ship to customers. Verizon sent notices to customers today with tracking numbers for their early orders.

- iPhone 6 & 6 Plus Sprint Pre-Order Thread!
- T-Mobile.com preorder thread

I wonder if mine will require signature at the door. Because i'm gonna be away from home that day at work
