Obviously oblivious to fisaco with UK carrier O2 earlier in week and now this balls up. Some of us cant just go to work, when our phones are our work SA
Funny how I can get to the App store and spend money there with no problem. But I can't access the activation within iTunes to get everything running.
Yep, thats the one I got. Go in to IE and enable them under 'Internet Options'
After that, I get another error saying that it cant do anything because my internet connection was reset.
They were already anabled. I unchecked them and then rechecked them, and I still get the error.

Hmm, I dont know then. Thats what I did...away with one error message, in with another is all that happened to me =/
i'm now stuck on Accessing Itunes Store..
still waiting for it to either succeed to get an error!!
Yes, I absolutely love my Iphone but not having it accessible and locked in "recover" mode has made me miss several important calls. I've been offline for a couple hours now.
Going back and forth between the Store and Iphone doesn't appear to help...or maybe my timing is just bad. Grats to those that slipped in!
NOTE: five seconds after I hit Submit on this post, I tried again, basically out of habit, and I'm activated.
Restoring from backup now.eventually got it now too
not ideal!! but hey, the apple servers are being hammered (again)

i truly question why anyone would buy the phone day one if the phone is tied to their livelihood. You've got to go in knowing you are not guaranteed a smooth process with a brand new product and brand new procedure.
That is the risk any early adopter takes.
If you can't take that risk, you shouldn't have purchased it today.

Add me to the list.
Blah, i guess ill just keep trying.
Keep getting the "Connection Timed Out" error in iTunes.
How lame.
takes a bite out of me one more time.Lucky! How'd you do it?
I don't know! I just kept trying as I was emailing a friend, etc, and I went to go switch between my Library and iPhone again and I saw that the activation page was suddenly up!
I'm already syncing.

Gratz man! I have a feeling I'm going to be here a while.....back to clicking!!!
I think I just figured out what the problem is...this is Apple's way of making sure we plug the phone in and get a proper initial charge before we start using it!
