I'd like to see Weekend 2 numbers. Tons of Jet Black being shipped this week that will be activated (including mine, which arrives Wed or Thu!).


(Off-topic: I had something weird happen for the first time ever, with an Apple product shipment. I took advantage of the ATT promo to return my son's 6 for a free 7. The Fedex 'delivery' arrived last Friday, but there was a peculiar note from the delivery guy: it said, "go to the Fedex office to pick it up". I did, the person at the Fedex office brought over my box: it was opened..... with no phone inside! I was told that "...it probably fell off." I've been wasting time with ATT and Fedex these past couple of days, and finally they told me that a new one will be on its way in "7-10 days.")

Someone stole it. You should sue the pants off them for handing you an open box.

You can't sue them because you never signed and therefore never took receipt. It's up to either AT&T or Apple, whoever shipped it, to make an insurance claim for the lost item. It's about when ownership changes hands. Trust me, you prefer it this way. Otherwise every time somebody ships you something it will have been considered that you took receipt at the time they shipped it.

I really think the “annoying” comments are just sour grapes over Apple not doing what it was told not to by the pundits and critics. I just don’t get the included adapter being a problem. The reasons seem forced and concocted like people are trying to justify their annoyance by inventing them. The “charge and listen” crowd is a hoot as there are so few of them, and the fact that third party solutions will be numerous, varied, and cheap. But after all of this it’s beginning to look like the iPhone 7 will be a major hit in spite of the harping by the vociferous opposition. So the “annoying” comment is academic at this point.lkrupp said:

The biggest problem with the missing headphone jack is how it’s being presented in the media. The impression given in most of the articles is that users will no longer be able to use their current headphones and that they will be forced into buying expensive wireless headphones. The included adapter is never mentioned. The included Lightening earbuds are never mentioned despite the fact that the vast majority of users listen with the included earbuds and why we see those white cords hanging down all over the place. It almost seems like a misleading crusade to punish Apple.

Two very good posts. These people must find something to complain about. I have a 5s and I play music over Bluetooth or use wireless listening devices. Don't wish to be tethered to wires.
