Man that was a bad choice ;) I preordered my 32gb iPad for pickup. Stood in line for *3* hours to get it. They'd only let 5 people in the store at a time.

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

Oh great.

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

Well I can only hope it doesn't end up that way for you. If I had to pre-order again i'd just have it delivered. They send them overnight to guarantee you get it on launch day for no additional cost.

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

I thought I would want to pick it up but after today, no way.

Tony, can't find that app you are referring to.

Here is AT&T's website message:

The site seems to be much faster now but I keep getting errored out on the check eligibility page - dang guess I shouldn't have maxed out all my credit cards on cigars and bourbon!! :)

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

yes,but it seems to be getting worse.

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

I put mine for p/u also. I'm a sucker for punishment. :D

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

ok, now I dont feel so bad :r

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

Can anyone add some light to this statement on Apple? They show a different price if for an upgrade.

Requires new two-year AT&T wireless service contract, sold separately to qualified customers; credit check required; must be 18 or older. Existing AT&T customers who want to upgrade from another phone or replace an existing iPhone will find out if they are eligible for early upgrade pricing: $299 (8GB), $399 (16GB), or $499 (32GB) with a new two-year contract. For those who are not eligible for an early upgrade, the prices are $499 (8GB), $599 (16GB), or $699 (32GB). In CA, MA, and RI, sales tax is collected on the unbundled price of iPhone.

I downloaded the app. (searched apple from iphone)
You can only reserve for pickup. I'd rather have them deliver it.
I'll need to sync it with itunes anyways.

Look in the 10 ten for free apps. It's #1

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

Well I get further and further each time I try to pre-order. Eventually I will make it to the end lol

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

Yeah I went to the Apple store last night about 1am Pacific time, 4am Eastern time to see if I could beat the rush since I'm on the west coast, but the store wasn't even up. Said they were upgrading the system... Now I've been trying for an hour with no luck. Even called AT&T and they said I need to preorder online only... thanks!?! LOL

Regarding the Apple App to preorder... great idea but for me, only if they allowed shipping. I don't want to deal with waiting in lines and can wait a day or two for shipping if needed.

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

Not sure Carlos.

Here is what my reservation confirmation looked like after I selected my plan.
also I went with the unlimited data for $30 vs 2G for $25.

Was at the local ATT store since 930am and the ATT ordering system is down. Had to have them call me and do it over the phone.

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

Imagine a world (well, an America) where the iPhone was spread across multiple carriers and instead of bogging down one carrier's site on launch day, it was spread across 4 different carriers. We all ordered our new iPhone's in a timely fashion and actually got some work done...it seems too good to ever be true.

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

I finally got mine pre-ordered on the ATT site!! One thing I hate though is that Apple requires FedEx to get a signature for delivery. I may have to pay someone to sit at the house all day on the 24th!!

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

Haha ... me too. Or maybe I'll just convince the DrMS that we should drive to work separately.

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

Once you get the tracking number on the shipment, you can call FedEx and ask them to hold at the depot or re-route to a Kinkos/FedEx Office near you and you can pick it up there.

I don't blame Apple for being a PITA on the shipping with mandatory signature requirements, these things are going to be a very hot item for theft.

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
 

I understand the need for them to do it... It is just a PITA as you said.

Thanks for the tip on the FedEx call. I may do that!!
