Has there been any official word yet that any of the Apple stores are sold out?
 
Just got back from the Apple store.

Naperville and Oak Brook, IL stores are both sold out of walk-in iPhones.

Naperville is all sold out in full except for reservations and Oak Brook handed out tickets to those in the walk-in line and sent those at the very back of the line home. When the current line runs down, they are done. Only reservations after that. A store employee told me they hand around 2000 phones. 1300 for reservations and 700 for everyone else.
 
Apparently a little talcum powder to dry your palms so they don't short out the antennae works as well as (albeit with regular applications) the bumper case.
 
Aventura Store in Miami is sold out for walk-ins, they started offering people a reservation in two weeks to get one or the option to preorder one online
 
When I was buying mine, I asked the guy if they had enough for everyone and he said that they had to cut off the line after a certain person. Bumpers were also sold out. Managed to get the dock though.
 
Our Apple store (Cardiff, UK) from opening only had 32GB as 'surplus stock. The whole shopping centre held its breath as the manager got up on a ladder, thanked everyone for coming and said they only have 32.........GB in stock for walk up customers. :eek:

I am waiting to go to the oakbrook store to pick up my phone. I am glad to here they are sending people home. You know how many tickets they passed out?
 
I wonder if/when they'll put up that page that shows which stores have phones in stock.
 
Anybody know about any of the Atlanta area stores Lenox Square, Perimeter, Mall of Georgia, or North Point?
 
The Apple Store in Freehold, NJ has been sold out for walk-ins according to a phone call.
 
Bumpers sold out at all 3 Apple Stores around me because of the hype on the reception issue. I wanted one darn it!
 
Roosevelt Field Mall, and Americana Mall (Manhasset) are sold out in Long Island NY to walk ups....I tried calling the 5th Ave store but was on hold for 1 hr and couldnt stay on hold anymore. Does anyone know if theu still have any avail?

Manhasset...My hometown...:)

Not surprising that they are sold out given the demographics of the area.
 
West county mall in St louis cut off the line hours ago but isn't technically sold out yet. And there are fewer than ten people in front of me.

They had several hundred they passed out. But that was at like 10am. Not sure if they finished off the walkin folks yet.
