Ok, then Apple will all their trillions still can't do a proper product launch. People are having their iPhone orders delayed all the while Apple launches the phone in a couple dozen new countries.
Or do they do it intentionally to keep the hype going for several month instead of meeting the demand and let the buzz fizzle away?
Lol, it's hard to imagine the blinders people have on sometimes.
Have you EVER worked out the logistics of something before??!! Maybe a wedding? A charity event? Anything at all??
Well... if you ever do, you may notice that there are a lot of details; many of which can impact your final outcome. The logistics of shipping iPhones are near incomprehensible.
NEVER have there been consumer electronics products that sell like the iPhone. Never has ANY company had to try to organize this type of rollout to this kind of demand. They have to plan the countries rolling out to & lock in shipping agreements MONTHS ahead of time. Lol at your very, very immature & "spoiled child" logic of "just have them reroute a different country's shipment here to me in America". Awwwwwww..... did Apple forget wittle scruffy is the most important human on the planet again?? Maybe if you hold your breath & stomp your feet, they'll quit being a global company & will ONLY ship to America for you, sweetheart.
Occam's Razor plays out nicely here- is it more likely that Apple is utilizing the insane output of the Chinese factories that have mass hiring sprees to produce their products as fast as possible, to the best of their ability, with some minor hiccups due to sheer barely controllable magnitude of such an endeavor... or is this unheard of volume of sales shipments so cake & so controllable that Apple not only has a COMPLETE handle on it, but can actually afford the luxury of holding back shipments purposefully & playing silly games because production is SO far ahead of schedule & demand in general?
I've heard your conspiracy theory tinged take... I wonder if anybody else cares to weigh in?
