So much like last year when the day after the launch you could stroll in to the Apple Store with no wait and still get an iPhone it looks like this year you can too. I checked the availability onlne and the Lenox Square store still shows all three models in stock.
I don’t think I am heading out to upgrade just yet, but it is nice to see that you didn’t have to wait in line for 12 hours unless you just had to have it on Friday.
Most of the Atlanta stores still have them in stock, although some are sold out of specific models (the black 16GB typically). As a side note it seems they take down the availability as the stores begin to open since now the link for the GA stores doesn’t include the info.
It may still be in stock, but if you get any kind of corporate discount – even if the phone is in your name – AT&T has flagged your account and Apple can’t process your purchase/upgrade.
I could have purchased 5 iPhones @ Perimeter yesterday, but I was stonewalled and told to go to an AT&T store, none of which have iPhones in stock.
Good tip. I kept it on my account to avoid such an issue but it seems that even getting the discount means trouble.
