I have been told by two separate Telstra shops that they may not have the phone on July 11, maybe.

I still think Apple Store Sydney will have them. Every day they always have tutorials in the morning and afternoon but on Friday 11 July they only have things from 5pm onwards.

What watters has said is pure speculation (though it would be great if true).

The only place you are confirmed to be able to find them on July 11 are authroised Telstra, Optus and Vodafone stores. Check out the FAQ and news items on the front page of the site and see whether there is a place near you that suits.

+1. I think we should all stay at our warm homes waiting for videos and pics on the internet, and just buy one later.

It's all about expectations; I'm telling myself there will be blood...err, shortages. This way, come the 11th, my suspicions are confirmed, so I'm not completely disappointed, or there isn't a shortage, and I get an iPhone. Almost win-win!

I am sure they will run out but I want to see what the plans are before I get one anyway. I'm not going to blindly get one and end up on a plan I'm not happy with.

Here Here. I can't believe the number of people on here who seemed to make up their minds over which carrier they were going to go with before any details of the plans were released.

The biggest and the best for me all the way!
So no matter where I go - I can enjoy all the benefits of a true 3G iPhone!

Hopefully Vodafone release competitive plans that:

1. Give Optus non-deposit holders a chance

or

2. Persuade Optus deposit holders to change to vodafone so us non-deposit holders can have a chance at Optus again :P.

Re Watters comment as speculation, I was told by an Apple Store employee that they have been told they will be selling it from the new Sydney Store but nothing more than that.
