    Don't think I'll be up north in the next few weeks but will be in London at the end of the month so will probably pick one up then.

    Any rumours of a release date in Ireland?

    @KrisR - nah I was just joking.. hence "Purple monkey dishwasher"

    @TheBigGreen - Maybe Friday morning, but that's just from some random person on the Internet. So... shovels of salt there! It's not in Apple or consumers interest to keep this rumour-mill going... People just want the damn phone already. So I'm thinking it'll be in the next week or so.

    Im heading up to Belfast for the day on Friday, i'm gonna pop in and chance my arm, probably won't have any as every day i've rang this week i've been told 'out of stock and we dont know our delivery dates or times, best thing to do is ring each morning at 10:30am'. I find the staff in Victoria square generally nice and helpful

    Look at the price of them 899 for a 16gb white no way they will be that expensive when released here.

    It's an option for anyone impatient and those with deep pockets!

    For anyone at the other end of the country, when you factor in the time and cost of driving to Belfast and back then it doesn't look quite so bad.

    The price will come down in time of course.

    Out of stock yesterday, rang in the afternoon, still have to ring today to ask

    Just rang, only have 64gb in stock and white/gold colour, they said they are expecting some in again soon but they sell out within 30 minutes

    So if they got that shipment in yesterday, I'm guessing there won't be one tomorrow?

    Are you going to risk going up early by leaving dublin before opening hours?

    Ahh I see. I'm hoping to pick up an 5s gold 16gb. But if I make the trip I'd be happy enough to pick up any colour as I can't make the trip until next Tuesday!

    It'll be either black/grey or white/silver in 16 or 32gb. Where you heading from?
