Who I have the same questioned this topic

Folks waiting for your preorders to ship,  you have means of transportatio, I would highly encourage you to check the inventory at your nearest Apple Store and the closest Verizon location.

It would seem as though the X is not having the same inventory constraints that were previously reported.

The both colors and capacities of the X are in stock at the 10 Apple Stores within a 40 mile radius of my house. There may also be local Verizon stores with inventory as well but you’ll probably want to call to confirm first.

If you‘re impatient, have a store with availability within a reasonable distance and have transportation, check it out as an option. It may beat waiting until mid-November and beyond for shipping.

I doubt any devices ices will be shipping from local stores so if inventory is in-store it’s available to reserve for walk-ins.
