Pre ordering iPhone 5 for in store collection?

Does anyone know how to Pre order the iPhone 5 for in store collection? When I got my 4s on the website the only option seemed to be pre ordering online for delivery? Looking online today it would appear that is the case again. Does anyone know a way to pre order online but to pay and collect in store?

You can't pre-order and pick up from a store, you can either pre-order and get it delivered or chance going to the shop on launch day but to be honest I don't think they will sell out as quick as they used to.

For the iPhone 4 launch, you could reserve one online on pre-order day by going to Apple.com/UK > retail stores, pick a store and select one from there. This got you a reservation email.

Turning up at the Apple store on the day (Trafford Centre, 4.40am!) there were two lines: one for reservations, the other for people without reservations. Everyone in the reservation line got their reservation.

I'm hoping a similar system works this time tomorrow morning, ideally via the Apple Store iOS app or on the web. Chances are I'll 'belt and braces' - order one on PAYG/Sim free for delivery and then go for an in-store reservation. If I get the latter, cancel the former.

I used the reservations system last time. Worked fine and collected from my local Apple store.

I've got 2 to upgrade so will use the same system again.
