I live near Los Angeles. I'll be camping out at around 12am since I don't have a reservation/preorder, but I am still deciding whether to go to Apple or to At&t. I just wanna know if you guys think the multiple at&ts around me will have at least 100 - 200 phones in stock, and if it worth calling a nearby at&t to ask them how many they will have in stock. I would automatically go to the apple store if was nearer by alas its around 12 miles away and I'm sure the wait times will be long even at 12am.
 
In a very large market here in South Florida, my local AT&T store had about 200 total phones available on 3Gs launch day. The Apple Store which is about a mile from this store had around 5,000(which is what one Apple Store employee estimated). The Apple Store had enough for ALL walk-ins that day, and had enough to start the walk-ins right at opening the next day. They ended up selling out about mid-day I believe.

Point is, AT&T is extremely limited, and even more so now I would think with Walmart, BB, and other stores being given more supply.
