The iPhone 5s in now in stock at nearly 100% of U.S. Apple Retail Stores, according to a survey by Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster.

In October, Munster reported that the device was out of stock at 92% of the 60 U.S. stores surveyed. Every two weeks, Munster updated his survey with the latest December 4th check finding stock at every store.

"We believe Apple has caught up to demand, which we had expected ahead of the core holiday period," Munster writes. "In reflecting on the supply for the 5S product launch overall, we believe that net-net Apple has done a better job in suppling stores with phones proportional to demand."

Notably, Apple has also reduced its ship time for online orders to 1-3 business days.
