Anyone who's completed - can I pick it up in an Apple Store like last year (reserve) or must I have it delivered?
 
We are sorry, due to huge demand your iPhone 4S can't not be purchased. Feel free to order our new iPod Touch instead.

I can't believe this is happening. Nobody was suppose to want the 4S because it wasn't different enough.

Wow...I can't preorder through Apple if I'm a new Sprint customer....wtf?

Sprint's 3G data is slow. Not worth it. I'm a Sprint customer now and would switch to AT&T if I had the choice.
 
If I order one can I return it to the store for a full refund after I receive it? I think this AT&T eligibility is ********. I would tend to think they will revise this before the 14th. I just don't want to be stuck with a $650 phone if I'm wrong.
 
So I ordered through my phone's Apple Store app. Got all through picking the phone, selecting my wireless plan, accepting the terms and conditions. At check out, my order failed and said couldn't complete, but my card was charged. No receipt. FML.

Using the App i can at least get past choosing what size and color :)
 
This is totally different from last year.......

Order through Verizon's site was easy! We ordered two iPhone 4S's through there before the Apple site even started working. Not sure why there was such a delay...
 
I'm trying to pre-order iPhone 4s from apple as a new AT&T customer and it said i have to go to an apple retail store to do it???

this sucks...app store app won't do it, apple.com won't do it.

these idiots should know they are going to get pounded. this is ridiculous.

It doesnt matter how well they prepare a culmination of millions accessing one store at once for the same Data, theres not enough bandwidth available to make that a smooth process.
 
No option to pick up in store (reserve). It says it will be available first come, first serve on October 14. :( This is apparently only for ordering online with delivery.
 
I've been up for an hour now on hold this whole time i checked sprint and verizon there working fine but just now is apple letting me and att is still being a butt
 
Spent 10 minutes clicking refresh on apple.com before I thought to try Verizon. Worked like a charm. Ordered my white 64Gb phone. :-D
 
i tried on the verizon site.

it asked me if i wanted to keep my data package or change it.

i said keep. i currently have unlimited, i'd like to keep that.

the next page, it made me pick between 2 GB, 5 GB, and 10 GB. What the heck

Yeah looks like this failure (iPhone 4S) is showing same signs of failling like the previous failure (iPhone 4). Go figure :D
