I got one! My second night of trying. I'm from DC/VA, but I'm driving to VT on Thursday. I tried my zipcode first, nothing up to NJ, then tried the VT zip. There was a white 16 GB AT&T at the Crossgates store in Albany, NY. Yay!
I think you only have 1 day to pick it up, though. If you aren't going to be there until Thursday I'd give the store a call to see if they'll leave it aside.
Mission: Impossible - Find an iPhone 5!
Yeah guys, just following all of this from here (Brazil). I was able to register one CC on my US account and ready to buy it, but no phones at all!
Next thursday I'll be in Miami until Sunday, and I WILL FIND my iPhone 5 there! Black, 32/64, AT&T! You can count on that!

What's crazy is there are 2 stores that have had the same exact phones in stock both last night and tonight.
Richland (Jackson), MS has both black and white 64 for Sprint and Baton Rouge, LA has black only.
It's like their stock isn't moving...both became available at 9:57 and are still available. Last night I logged on at midnight and both were there.

The T&C's state that the primary account holder must be present to pick-up the phone so if your dad is that person then yes, he needs to go with you or pick it up for you.
that's my plan. well, for the time being. i just put in an order and for the next few weeks before it is shipped i'll try to see if i can snag one and then cancel my order.
I am just gonna order and wait out the 3-4 weeks.
This doesn't look like it is gonna let up anytime soon.

I've lost a couple because I wasn't fast enough but got a couple the following night. Win some; lose some.
Did you use express check out or does it not make a difference? When. I did it, they wanted a contact # and the security code on my card. Is there any other way to bypass thisI've lost a couple because I wasn't fast enough but got a couple the following night. Win some; lose some.
Used express checkout, but you still need to enter the security code on your cc and click a few times.
Agreed. I ordered with AT&T today but will try reserving a few more times. If my number comes up I will cancel the AT&T order.
No luck in the st louis area when I checked around 10pm. Called a couple of Best Buys in the area earlier. The Best Buy's have only received their launch shipments and nothing more
not necessarily. some won't give you any hassle picking it up. others may just have you prove you're an authorized user (as they did with me).
