Where are ye going to pick them up though? Any shops I've rang have said they are sold out (vodafone) and I want to get one on bill too!

Cheers for the skin links lads, and I'm getting mine in Newry Ryan.

Anyone expecting shipment to be soon?

I wouldn't be surprised to see "Preparing for shipment" on Friday or the following Monday.

I'd say next Wednesday or Thursday.

If you order now, according to the delivery dates your phone will ship on 3 weeks and you get it on the 5th November. 3 weeks from today plus 3 working day delivery = 5th.

So I hope that means ours will be prepared for shipment late this week/early next week and shipped & delivered earlier than the 24th.

People have been getting theirs delivered 8 days early.

I like your theory! Fingers crossed.

Going back a few posts, I'm pretty sure the quiet rattle is the sleep button on top (and it is quiet on mine anyhow). It seems to make a similar sound when you gently tap the button.

If you shake your phone it rattles because of the lens and also the sleep button. Nothing to worry about.

My screen has flickered once when I was entering my password in the App Store, but never again since that. Could be an iOS bug.

Impressed with the DC-HSPA performance - only got a chance to do some speed tests today and got around 18MBit. Best I'd seen with my 4S was 8MBit.

Anyone got over 20 on their iP5?

Maybe some day Comreg will get their act together and licence LTE here!

Anyone else feeling underwhelmed by the new iPhone? Yeah it gets the job done, it is pretty responsive and it does everything you need it to.... But it just all feels pretty jaded to me. Maybe it's just because I'm so used to the iOs but it just doesn't do anything particularly new.... Also the disappearance of Google maps & the YouTube app is a real bug bear for me ( I know this isnt specifically an iPhone 5 issue but it just grates on me and almost makes me resent Apples strategy of forcing customers to use their own software). Oh well, at least I've only got another 23 and a half months left on my contract!

Does anyone know if the iphone5 will support 4g networks should they become available here. I know they do in other countries but will that be the case here?

ryan08

Anybody know where I can get the ip5 on vodafone bill pay? Cancelled the apple.ie order because I want to switch to bill pay but can't find any shops that have any! Even tried to contact vodafone but they don't know a thing and don't want to help either!

Nope nothings set in stone yet

2 weeks on now since I placed my order on Apple.ie and my status is still "Processing". Have to say the two week wait so far wasn't as bad as I expected. Probably because I knew there'd be a long wait this time around.

I'm expecting by this time next week my order will be either "Preparing for shipment" or "Shipped". Going by previous orders from Apple including the iPhone 4 they always send them out before even the earlier estimate.

Here's hoping.

Yeah have noticed the same myself, only when your asked for your App Store password the screen flickers at the key board. Fingers crossed its a bug.

Fingers crossed it's not a hardware screen issue, mate...

I got that flicker too - just once when I had the keyboard displayed. Tried to get a screencap, but either I missed it or nothing was captured.

Its happened to me too. Software issue http://thenextweb.com/apple/2012/10/12/graphics-glitches-seen-on-iphone-5-screens-and-keyboards-are-likely-a-software-issue-not-hardware/
