I did the preapproval thing for Apple Upgrade, so it only took like a total of three clicks once the store loaded. It was like a preorder for my preorder, so my phone and carrier specs were all saved. 256GB Space Gray XS. Woke up a 2:50, click, click, click, back in bed by 3:15. Easy as breathing.

My kids are both out of the area in college/grad school. Plus one is an Android user. So it’s down to me.

That never stopped my mom. I haven't owned a Windows computer in a decade, and yet she still calls me for every computer issue she has with her limping computer, which she insists is "just fine" even though it can barely run MS Word.

Rookie....I got up at my usual time, ordered, and didn’t have to interrupt my sleep.

I think you’re the rookie, mate! I’m used to the old days, when if you didn’t get your order confirmed by 3:30, you could be stuck waiting for weeks or even months for delivery. It was a race to get an order in. Dual-tabbing Apple and your cell carrier’s website to see which one would let you in first. Since then, it’s just become tradition.

I remember those days. Less stressful now.

Still, there’s something to be said for tradition.

Why do you get excited about new phones?! They've been basically the same for a good few years.
