Orange never stocked the 32GB version of the N5 (as far as I know) and 16GB is just not enough. I bought from Amazon, but had to use Postbox-Courier to get it here. Was all worth it in the end.

Got my invite :) Am just going through the process of paying and what not (signing up for paypal, also NYbox), bit of a pain, but hey. Then I found that my card limit is too low, so gotta get that changed tomorrow lol.

I'm just hoping that it's not too big for my liking, otherwise I might have to sell it on carbonite, but I do hope I like its size (I know I'll like the rest of it)

Congrats :) It's about as big as a Note III, for reference.

The OPO is not as wide though. I see Notes at uni all the time and for some reason they seem bulkier than my phone.

Yeah, but I think it's about the closest reference that I could give ;) I think the OPO is longer though.

I'm just waiting on my glass screen protector to come in and then I'll bring in the phone, 2 covers and the orzly screen protector 1 time.

Handy being able to consolidate shipments.

I got mine today :D

I ordered a nexus 5 from orange store last week but it just took so damn long I cancelled my order this morning. I came across this thread and decided to check on Bidorbuy and I found a seller that lives 5 minutes away.

Fantastic phone!!! Really loving the size.

Welcome to the club! It's an amazing phone. How much did you pay for yours?

Mine has shipped from the US so should get it next week. Getting a nillkin and diztronic case and an orzly glass screen protector as well.

Shipping isnt cheap and am hoping that customs don't rape me as well. Holding thumbs

My order is still says "Pending Shipment", sending it to my NYbox. Also thinking of getting a case, there's some pretty cool looking bamboo ones on amazon, which I can also send to my nybox, can't decide though, may add a bit of bulk

Interesting, their blog states that they're launching a pre-order system, subject to availability, late Oct. However, with demand, the invites still seem like a better option
