The iPhone 5s is now available to ship within 3-5 days via Apple's Online Store.
Shipment times had just improved to 1-2 weeks on November 12th. The 3-5 day ship time is for all models, colors, and carriers and comes just ahead of the important holiday shopping season.
I'm sorry but this is very crass from apple to do this sort of thing. They're style is slipping and they're no longer elegant in their proceedings. I still love my iPhone don't get me wrong but this is some nasty way to push the crappy plastic no one wants. They should've waited to announce it until they had supplies. This is upsetting. Love the product but this teasing us like we were children has to stop. With Jobs it wasn't like that. I still don't have my 5S which is what I want. I don't want to be pushed the 5C.
