iPhone 5 Available for Preorder!


The iPhone 5 is now available for preorder!  You can preorder from Apple or from one of the carriers.  Along with that, shipping estimates are showing 2 weeks in the Apple Store.  Does that mean the iPhone is just selling that quickly?  We will probably find out how iPhone 5 sales did after the weekend.  My only disappointment is that I haven't seen where you can purchase an unlocked version of the iPhone 5.  That may come later.  If you're frugal, you may want to crunch the numbers.  It may be cheaper in the long run to pay in advance.  Just an idea.  Either way, I hope you enjoy your iPhone 5 when you get one.
