Just wondering how many cancelled an existing order online today with Apple because you picked one up in person @ AT&T?
 
I actually picked up two and cancelled two it was kinda odd the AT&T store I went to had no one in line as of 1:00pm EST and had plenty of iPhones in stock according to the sales rep
 
Thinking about it. Just worried my order will go to "preparing for shipping" in the amount of time it takes me to get one and then cancel my order.
 
FWIW, I just called around to 3 AT&T stores in the area, and the Apple store. All out of stock.

I'm just going to continue to be patient.
 
I did.

I had my pre order in since the 22nd. I went into at&t this morning, and went to purchase my phone. While the guy was going thru the screens, a red X popped up saying he couldn't sell me one because of a pending sale. We opened up apple.com and cancelled the pre order and after a few more attemps (about 5 minutes lapsed), at&t's system synced with apple.com and my order went thru.

I was sweating thinking I waited 2.5 hours and wouldn't walk out with a phone.

Moral of the story, once you confirm at&t store has them, cancel your pre order before you drive there so you can avoid issues!
 
+2..me and my gf both waited in line this morning and got one at ATT and canceled our Apple preorders
 
Thanks for the insight everyone. I was hoping to see more so my July 14th ship date would get pushed up! We don't have an Apple store here and with only one AT&T store on the island it was a little crazy there yesterday.
