I am...

But I can't decide between the Apple Stores or the ATT stores.

Lenox Square store first

I am going to go to the Lenox Square store first. If too crowded there, I am going to go to the new one at Perimeter.

Lenox is crowded on a regular day... you might as well go to north point or perimeter right off the bat.

Were I to buy one friday, I'd be down at north point.

Perimeter like what?!? I guess there is an advantage to working in Sandy Springs after all. Now the real challenge is getting the iPhone to supplant the functions of my Crackberry.

I would be in line with y'all (we can use that word in this thread!) but my wife and I are headed out to Hawaii in a couple of days. I hope to go to one of the stores in Hawaii on the 29th and pick up one!

From a volume of people perspecive, AT&T stores will be a better place to go since there are so many of them in Georgia. But, from a customer service perspective, I expect Apple to have POS down to a science and be able to move units much faster. Plus, Apple reportedly will not be handing AT&T contracts. AT&T could bog down each transaction with contract details.

ATT store for me

ATT stores are closer to me. Confirmed by phone that the local store will have phones in stock on Friday. But they said to plan on waiting in line. So I will be there about 1:00.

Apple Store vs. AT&T Store

I'm thinking the three Atlanta Apple Stores are going to be much more mobbed (relatively speaking of course) than the AT&T Stores....anyone think differently? The key is to find an out-of-the-way AT&T Stores that will actually have sufficient inventory.

I am still deciding where to go....
Apple stores= lines with AC.
AT&T stores = less people.

Probably going to do Perimeter Apple Store....Still not sure how early though.

I can't see this thing being as bad as the wii was this Christmas, but it still seems like its going to get crazy.....

Definitely an ATL area Apple store, not sure which one yet.

I'm showing up late though.

Atlanta area

I will be out of town for the launch but plan to pick mine up sometime next week.

I will most likely buy it from the Perimeter Apple Store or the Perimeter AT&T Store.

Did anyone figure out which ATT stores will carry the iPhone? I thought I read that the storefront would have the ATT logo as opposed to Cingular. Every place I've checked around N Druid Hills area still has the Cingular logo.

They started rebranding the cingular store off of Perimeter for a few weeks to a at&t store. Right now they are working out of a double-wide trailer they brought in. Not sure if it is supposed to be finished by Friday or not. If it isn't that should be fun.

I didn't know they had one at North Point. That one is the closest one to me, if I decided to go to work that day. Might be there. If not I will try either the at&t trailer or the Perimeter Apple store.

Perimeter, North Point, and Lennox.

Given a choice between the three, I'd go to North Point. (like I said earlier)
