Hi All,

I'm currently on Verizon, and will be switching (and porting my number) to AT&T for the iPhone 3G S. I'm joining my parents' family plan, and I preordered the 3G S last night (Saturday) from AT&T's website with my parents' login.

It looks like now, since pre-orders are sold out, that since I waited to order 'til Saturday I may not get my iPhone on Friday.

So, I have a couple of questions.

1) Can I cancel my pre-order?

2) If I cancel my pre-order and wait in line at my local AT&T store (I plan on being 1st in line), will they likely have some to sell, or will they be all preorders?

3) If I buy from my local AT&T store, will I need one of my parents there, since I'm not the authorized account holder?

Thanks in advance!

-Mike
