I'm not standing in line to get one tomorrow, but I'm wondering if either the ATT or Apple stores will keep 1-2 for people to look at/demo. Do they do that for the other iPhones?

The Apple store usually has several set up as demo models.

The screen is amazing. It's really hard to see the individual pixels.

you mean impossible

I have mine reserved already I wonder how long that is gonna take at the apple store.

GD apple site wouldn't let me have it shipped because it kept messing up.

For anyone who has one on reserve what time are you showing up?

 

[Adrenaline]

I got mine at 11AM this morning at work

Activated no problemo.

Have you stumbled across any good cases for it? I plan on getting a new one for myself and my wife around mid July (when she can upgrade).

I am waiting for an Otterbox defender series case as I have a three year-old daughter along with working in a not so friendly environment for phones.

Best Buy was supposed to call me today to make a reservation. Haven't heard from them yet. I was 12 on the list too. Oh well.

Anyone else coming across this problem? http://gizmodo.com/5571171/

Maybe I'll wait for the next years model after all.. :\

For those of you who haven't reserved online, how early are you guys going to your local store to pick up the iphone tomorrow? I have all day tomorrow free, and was wondering how early I should get there to ensure I get one? I've preordered the 3G and the 3GS online, but I really don't feel like waiting til July 14th this time around.

 

[GodlessAstronomer]

Holy shit guys, it's a phone. Who cares if you have to wait an extra few days? Wow.

 

[umrigar]

A guy I work with told me that if you didn't reserve one, you won't get one by waiting in line - they are all for those who got a reservation.

Don't know if that's 100% true - but that's what I heard. YMMV.

I was at my local BB this afternoon picking up an EVO. While there I asked how many iPhone 4's they got for tomorrow, they are getting 20. This BB is in a town of ~25,000 in the surrounding 10 miles if I had to venture a guess.

Its true. They said dont bother unless you have a confirmed reservation.

"
Don’t go to AT&T

You may be tempted to go straight to the carrier, but it’s ill-advised: AT&T put out a statement on Tuesday noting that “demand is simply unprecedented,” and that they’re “committed to fulfilling preorders first.”
What this means: There will be iPhone 4s at AT&T stores on June 24, but unless you placed an online or in-store pre-order via AT&T and have had it confirmed, you won’t be able to buy one until at least June 29. Once June 29 rolls around, all orders are first come, first served—and if those run out, you’re looking at a nice undetermined wait time for your device to show up.
Bottom line: No AT&T store will have the iPhone 4 for walk-in customers on launch day. Don’t go there"

Mine does that. Haven't tested in call yet but the posts there are, um, not good.

Hoping it's an AT&T issue. I don't see how something like this could make it through testing.

I am waiting on the iskin case, but I picked up 2 of those $2 cases from meritline. They'll be satisfactory until iskin releases theirs.

 

[ManBearPig]

Wtf is this about yellow circles on the display issue?!?

 

[Zebo]

Buy a bumper.

Shields body from grounding antenna and protects your phone. Problem solved.

IMO anyone using an iPhone w/o a bumper is an idiot with it's hard glass. Hard means breakable. Exactly inverse to it's hardness.

Wow, wtf!?


Don't know what's going on with my order but it doesn't look like I'll be getting my phone tomorrow. Order status online still says that it will be delivered tomorrow but it has yet to be shipped and my credit card has not been charged...WTF apple? Good thing I didn't cancel my in store reservation.

 

[GodlessAstronomer]

Haha. Wow.

 

[jalaram]

The Burlington mall is right across from my office. I saw quite a few cars parked near it. I joked to myself that they were there for the iPhone. Then, when I saw pics on Engadget of the lines in Tampa, NY, SF, etc, I realized it might not be a joke.
