It looks like the lines at Apple Stores are just going to get longer. After AT&T said yesterday that they won’t have any Apple iPhone 4 phones for folks who didn’t pre-order until at least June 29th, I went online and asked a Best Buy sales rep about whether iFans will be able to grab phones at their stores. Here’s his response, typos and all.
“Thanks for your interest in iPhone 4 with AT&T. Best
Buy will be selling the phone. Apple has it still listed for the 24th if
you pre-ordered, and if you go to the store on the 24th or after you
can pre-order it, we have not been told by Apple when we will get.
Pre-Ordering after the 24th means buying a 50$ Gift card as a deposit
and signing up. If you didn’t pre-order it then on the 24th most liekly
we will not have available for purchase. We do not know how many phones
we will actually have in storeon the 24th, if any.”
So as you can see, right now the only stores guaranteed to get iPhones on the launch date of June 24th are the Apple Stores. Good hunting!
