Would it be more efficient if we all reassured you we already know you object to everything Apple and their distribution partners do? It would save you a lot of outraged keyboard banging if we had this understanding: We will all agree to keep in mind that you are hating every minute of your Apple experience unless you notify us that you happened to experience or observe something Apple does that you consider to be good. Just a suggestion.

I walked into Best Buy at 8:30 am on Friday and they had all regular 6 models available (they had no 6 Plus' as none had been delivered). I went to the Apple Store to check out the two sizes and I preferred the 6 over the Plus. I returned to Best Buy about two hours later and picked up the 6, 128gb with no problem. The capacity on the 128gb was 114gb so I assume the pre-loaded software was approximately 14gb. I am down to about 80gb available for my phone after all of the downloads. As an FYI, my iPhone 5 had about 30gb available left on a 64gb phone. You definitely will use up more memory on the new phones. Also, Best Buy gave me $240 for my iPhone 5, so the new phone only cost me $159 with a contract. Try getting a two-year old Android phone for $240. I could have gotten a better price selling it on the Internet, but I liked the fact that I had the cash in my pocket at the time of purchase. Kurt
