Good luck you won't get see any before 2017. As a Note 7 owner they could have won me back as customer but I'm not gonna wait 8 weeks for the goddamn phone to ship. My Pixel's arriving next week.

Your enormous loss lol

It is ridiculous - they can't supply the existing orders and now they start in even more locations? They have lost the plot if they think customers are happy to wait over two months for a phone (which is the current state with UK networks).

Still cant buy 7plus anywhere in Germany. Apple.com/de itself is between 3 and 5 weeks delivery. I really miss the old Apple where someone would put some thought into releases.

Wonder what comes first - iPhone7 plus or new Macs bases on last years Intel CPU.

I really don't understand why 7 pluses are still hard to find.
What happened to that report that said every Apple Store will have every configuration and color in stock on October 6th??
