    can anyone tell me what the story is with reservations over the weekend? i.e. is it possible to reserve a phone for Saturday or Sunday? looks like they only took reservations for tomorrow (19th)

    FYI. If anyone is looking for a silver 64gb 6 then I might be giving away my reservation if I get my 6+ tomorrow.

    Visa set their own exchange rate. You can check it out here http://www.visaeurope.com/en/cardholders/exchange_rates.aspx

    32 gig six is coming in at €780. There could be commission charged by your bank though.

    That's not a que, they will all get in on the first wave. The que will start o fill, around that corner, across the footbridge, right down the other side, across the other footbridge,mother wrap around the lifts.

    The above pic is only the start of the que.

    Good luck lads, based on that que without a reservation I couldn't risk driving all that way hoping to get the exact phone I want. Hope it all goes well for ya's

    I assume every single person in that queue has no reservation..

    What time are people who have the 9-10am reservation slot heading up at?

    Yep, that is the first come first served que. Reservations for 9-10 will bypass the que and walk straight into the store.

    Really, it's all down to how many reservations Apple allow per time slot.

    I reckon (pure speculation/fact/illuminati) that they'll have a higher amount allocated for the 9-10 slot to get a nice bulk for early morning buzz/atmosphere/press!

    Last year, I queued from around 2:30am and was here in the queue when the doors open (still didn't get the exact model I wanted!!)
