Agreed. It just seems that most people who are in possession of this phone (online or otherwise) did so by walking up to the counter, and without much trouble. Meanwhile, people who were willing to put a $40 deposit down to avoid the lineups are still waiting.
Granted, we're only a few days into it here, but it seems that the reservations system is flawed and/or my expectation of being somehow prioritized is equally as flawed.
