Ok I have a question with the Apple preorder online.
I am the account holder. My fiance is on a family plan with me. Who's social and phone number gets put in? Mine for my phone, her's for her phone line, or mine for both ?

Finally, success online! Unfortunately, they forced me to ship it to my home address. I guess I'll be working from home until it arrives.
That was the most painful buying experience online I have ever had. Started at 6:30AM PT and it took till 4:15PM PT.

Looks like I might have finally gotten through. After trying for several hours from initial launch till bed this morning, several times through the afternoon and over the past hour here at work, I successfully navigated through the apple store to get a purchase.
I had tried reserving earlier, the apple app store said i was reserved, never got an email. Did it online, never got an email and the online store didn't show me having a reservation, so hopefully I'll get my confirmation email on the charge for the pre-order.
No email yet but I'm watching, at least I have a nice little printout with an order number and such now so I'm feeling a bit bettter
Edit!
Yay, got my email confirming the order, and double checked my debit card was hit for the amount of the order. I also see two $1 charges, not sure what those are, maybe from when I was trying to reserve, although I never gave my card number until I got th actual pre-order to go through so who knows.
Looks like I get to relax at home and wait next week though

Don't Use Safari!!!!!!!!!!!
I made it to my cart and Safari crashed. Immediately used Firefox and made it through and it initially reported an error because the crashed order made it to the cart. I deleted the extra one and proceeded to finish and get the Order Number. What a freakin' mess.

I got my order in around 4:30 PM PST. The tax kind of hurt, but I finally got in for a black 32GB iphone 4 from apple.com shipped for 371 dollars (I also got a 3 pack of dock adapters). I've been trying since 1 AM PST.
I did it on my iPad with safari, one tab, and 3G. Laborious.

I ordered my third iPhone right now through premier. The order actually went through and gave me a confirmation email. My question is, will they cancel the order or will they ship it on rolling basis (which i have no problem with, as long as ghe order went through)
Started at 4:30am PST.
Got my first phone ordered at 2:30pm PST.
And the second phone ordered at 3:30 PST.
Both Order Acknowledgements received at 6:00pm PST!!

Reserved one at 5AM Central Time because the shipping wasn't working (Oops 
). Tried it again at 7PM and finally got the option to have it shipped. Also ordered a black bumper . Tried to free up my reservation for anyone heading to the Mall of America Apple Store, but the store is still acting up.. Sorry!

I just tried to order an iPhone through the Apple Online Store. I'm creating a new ATT plan as well. I got to the part after I input all my info and it tells me to create a reservation. There was never any "submit order" or "confirm" button. Did I do something wrong?
