iPhone 6 and Typhoon 8

This morning all the working population of Hong Kong (is it about 99%, right?) had got pleasant surprise - Typhoon 8 signal is in force. This means - no work today! (at least before the signal will go down, than you are supposed to come back within two hours...).

It is like fourth or fifth typhoon for me. It had never gone any higher than 8 and it is pleasant fresh wind (comparing to an average Hong Kong weather - variety of hot and super hot). So, ok. Staying in for now - dealing with some homework and getting extra sleep. Good.
But this day has some other meaning in it. It is today the pre-order of iPhone 6 is started! No more than 4 telephones per customer, you can book it online and pick up from Hong Kong store, if you are lucky, within this week. I don't know who are those lucky people who had dot through and how did they manage it? I am trying for almost an hour and it is constantly 'not available at the moment'.
I believe Typhoon situation did not help.. Instead of working entire Hong Kong sitting pre-ordering iPhones! 
It might be Apple company who paid for this Typhoon to happen!
What do you think about it at all? Do you like new design? My opinion is Apple is trying to get into Asian market, as people here mostly use huge Samsungs.
