Seriously, how many website requests can their site handle before choking under pressure?

 

[pab277]

haha, it's never ending.

 

[protekt0r]

down for me too. what a mess......

 

[dmx]

They are going to have to do a lot of work if they want to keep it up during the day.. I mean its pretty much the middle of the night right now.

 

[burnside]

What are they going to do when people are ordering during the DAY???

 

[Munitalp]

Apples website worked so much better last year... You think they would just design a system like Ticketmaster.com or something where it puts you in a queue and processes orders first come first serve. Better to wait in line than get OOPS! every minute.

I can't get past checkout.. What a joke. They have all this money to upgrade their servers but noooooo...

 

[PhoenixMac]

anyone else only getting the option to ship to house and not store pick up?

That was all just a mess from being overloaded, some got only pickup and some got only online... thats what they're fixing how hopefully.

 

[Maverick713]

So this just proves that the new Server Farm in North Carolina is not open yet.

They want me to go to an apple store

So the nearest apple store is 3hrs away I was going to make the drive to go and get the phone because I thought it would be fun but its telling me that I need to go to a store to preorder I have read that it is because I am to far away from an apple store this is not cool! I just want to give them money!

CAN WE NOT POST THREADS LIKE THIS?

Especially when it comes back up.
Some of us have been waiting here since last night.
Either refresh on your own or don't bother.

Stop posting when it's down/up.

Guess I was lucky - I got all the way through pick-up and got a screen confirmation that I can pick up on the 24th at 7 AM at my local Apple store.

Now as soon as I receive my email confirmation I will be happy.

 

[PhoenixMac]

[mloffa]

This is me when I am cranky and frustrated.

All I wanted was a White iPhone and now I can't even get a black one through Apple.

 

[Munitalp]

The whole Apple store is down now, maybe they are moving it to a better server

You would think they would have multiple servers taking in the requests.

What a roller coaster....
