iPhone sold out.

Sure...
Yes, you can cancel your order if you find something before the ship date. I was going to do the same thing but held back as I found out about the online retail updates. Only problem it doesn't detail what type are available 4GB or 8GB or both.
But I picked the store I thought would be most favorable and lucked out.

explanation
Apple is probably listing stores as out of stock if at least one of the two models is sold out. That way people don't go to the store and get disappointed because they want a 4Gb and Apple doesn't have any (when the website said they were in stock).

Does Apple still open at 9:00 today? I need to call them and around 15 AT&T stores...

Heh.
I wonder if the iPhone hasn't already outsold the Zune?
Seeing as I can't find exact numbers, reports are that the Zune is around 1M after 6MO, iPhone 500,000 (i've seen 300k to 750k) after only 5 (3 business) days.
I really don't think Pgh has any, I haven't called but, like I said before, my friend didn't get one Tuesday.
The entire scenario of judging product releases is ridiculous. It's almost as if selling 100K and being sold out is preferable to selling 700K with some stores still having stock.
Why should Apple suffer simply because they didn't artificially lower supply to create a frenzy? It seems to me they pretty much got their launch inventory spot on.
HAH! I go to the Tigard Oregon store all of the time. It's relieving to know if i had 5 or 600 bucks I could go get one.
Right when the iPhone was available online they stated 2-4 weeks. You will get yours on July 10 which is almost two weeks from the release. Those who order today will wait close to 3 weeks. Under promise and over deliver.
Blackberry should be worried.
Hold out!
If I were you I would hold out. I had a chance at the local AT&T store to take the 4 GB when the 8 ran out. The next day I decided to go to one of the Apple Stores that I thought gave the best shot at an 8GB. I got one and already have less than 3GB on the phone. And I'm not trying to fill it up.

Yeah that's what I got too from calling around. Lets keep those fingers and toes crossed in hopes those who want one today can get one!
I ordered mine online at 6:15 PM on June 29th, and it just arrived this morning! My activation wasn't immediate (transferring a number from t-mobile), so I'm currently awaiting an e-mail from AT&T ... I hope it doesn't take too long.
The shipping time originally said 2 - 4 weeks, then I got an e-mail saying it would ship by July 6, then I got a shipping notification that is shipped July 3. Despite the holiday (and the fact that I chose standard shipping) - it came today.
I love Denmark! I just visited for the first time in May, awesome place.
(Sorry so off topic.)
Actually, a little more than double the useable space since the OS and applications will take up about 1 gig by themselves. That leaves around 3 Gig versus 7 Gig of space for music, movies, and podcasts.
It has done better than I expected. I am holding out until I hear about an SDK (I enjoy software development) or a second rev comes out, so I am specifically avoiding Apple stores right now. I am afraid if I touch an iPhone I will lose control and buy one.
Are AT&T stores getting restocked or should I just try Apple stores? My local stores have been out since Saturday/Sunday and I'm wondering if they'll even get more anytime soon if the Apple stores are having trouble.
Yeah... my store has been out since Saturday. I really, REALLY want an iPhone. Apple needs to get some to the stores that aren't getting any!

o please o please o please o please o please o please o please o please o please o please o please o please o please o please o please o please
duly noted and totally agree... RIM should be shaking in their boots cuz nobody is buying up that stupid curve... imy iphone
Oh goodness, yep, I tried several Motos and blackberrys last week... the keyboards are horrible. I don't currently own a smartphone and have been dying to get one... I need one now more than ever... but these smartphone keyboards were all deal-breakers. I could get my finger on the right key AND I HAVE SMALL FINGERS!! (I'm a girl) If you have the slightest bit of your finger nail grown over the top of your fingers, forget it, the keyboard is useless. And no, I don't have inch-long manicured nails, not into that. I keep my nails short, to about a 1/32 of an inch! That's when i told my hubby that I'm waiting to get an iPhone once our contract's over in Fall 07! I think by then there would be enough iPhone software updates that would exceed my current needs.
There are a bunch on eBay. Some are going for a few hundred, quite a few for over $1000 and one person selling his for $20,990,000. Yes, almost $21 Million. He says most of the $ will go to charity. If it's his own charity (as in pocket), I won't be surprised.
I'm holding out for revision 2 also; I really want 3G and GPS. Good idea avoiding Apple Store's right now; I visited the Pioneer Place store in Portland, Oregon, and almost bought one just for it's sheer cool factor! I stopped by because I just had to try one out. They are amazing, even in generation 1.
Apple's Magic Date: June 29, 2007
Releasing the iPhone and Ratatouille on the same date was absolutely magical. Just brilliant. Two #1s on the same date! Amazing. The movie, of course, is about even the smallest and most seemingly insignificant can be #1 -- the very best in the world. If this wasn't a direct connection to Apple and Pixar themselves, I don't know what is.
About the 1M iPhones: If the rumors were true and there was a 4/1 ratio of 8GB phones over 4GB ones, Apple made $575,000,000 -- over a half a Billion Bucks! And if Apple makes its goal of 10M iPhones in the first year, $5,750,000,000: Almost 6 BILLION DOLLARS -- that's not including whatever they'll earn from activation fees, part of the cut of AT&Ts money (which is highly rumored) and ringtone cash -- It'll easily hit a cool 6 Billion in 2008. I am just amazed.
In my opinion, once the iPhone hits the world globally, I think the numbers are gonna much higher.
