Are you near an Apple Store

Reserve one using the new Apple Store iPhone app. It works unlike apple.com.
 
Typical. If you try to get the iphone as a new customer wanting multiple phones you can fly through the whole ordering process no problem. But if you are upgrading an existing account the site simply does not work. Jammers!

I'm confused.....So, for pre-orders, they don't require a credit card??? That's just weird to me......I'm really wondering if they actually got my pre-order or not, even though I have the email. Especially since there's no confirmation number or anything on it....
 
They ought to take down the preorder link and let anyone who is currently in finish preordering, then open it up again. It feels like they probably have the same people (me, for example) logging in again and again to preorder, and it's messing up the whole system.
 
I can't get into the servers either. I even called ATT and they said the servers are crashing so my only option is to keep trying.
 
Wait, just got through.

Tell me this though: if I pick up in the store, will I have to wait in a huge line? Or is it just walk right up to the counter and get it?
 
Got all the way to the "book reservation" button in the iPhone app. But then it says "could not create your reservation at this time, please try again later."
 
Just reserved mine using the Apple Store App!!! Took about 2 minutes, incredible how much easier that was.

Just one thing, in my confirmation email it said my price is $699. I'm elegible for my upgrade so why would it say this? Does it say this for everyone?

Wooohoooo i'm SO pumped!
 
i've been trying for the past 6 hours. beyond pissed.

The "beyond pissed" stage is where you stop giving a flip and decide to move on with the rest of your day. That is where I am. I'm soooo sick of entering in my personal data over and over and over and over again only to time out at the last or near the last stage. This is really a pathetic showing for Apple. I hope this day doesn't go down and the day Apple got to big for it's own good.
 
Yeah, I've been trying since 8am, no luck here. The Iphone app isn't working either.

Probably because Apple can't talk to AT&T servers right now. I'm sure it'll be fine when you pick it up.

Nope. I am a new customer and it's not working for me either.

It said mine was going to be $699 as well; I've been upgrade-eligible since March or so. Apparently, it's doing that for everyone and the correct price is what you'll be charged when you pick the phone up on the 24th.
 
I've never been so glad to be an insomniac in my life ;) I was able to order around 7AM on AT&T after about an hour of screwing with both sites. Now of course comes the week + wait of worrying if I'll get it before I leave on the 28th.
