Didn't Pre-Order an iPhone Duo Yet? Wait Times Are Significant Now

iPhone Duo pre-orders began today in the U.S. and select other countries. If you have yet to place a pre-order, however, wait times at Apple are longer now.

The first customers who pre-ordered right when pre-orders began at 5 a.m. Pacific Time today will have their devices delivered on Friday, October 23. By just 5:30 a.m. Pacific Time though, select configurations on Apple's online store in the U.S. are now showing delivery estimates into late January for new orders.

• iPhone Duo / Star White / 256GB: January 25
  
• iPhone Duo / Star White / 512GB: January 25

As always, Apple's shipping estimates are based on a combination of supply and demand, and we do not know how much supply was available on day one of pre-orders. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said that iPhone Duo supply would be limited, following earlier reports of potential manufacturing challenges resulting in low production yield.
