And it's still bricked. The ATT kiosk said that the activations were taking a long, long time, so we could just take them home and do it. Fine I said, I'd love to go back to sleep. Now I'm at home, plugging this thing into Itunes, and it keeps saying that it won't connect. I'm not sure if this is the same problem they are having, but it would be nice to know that I don't have to drive back up there.

Anyone in a similar situation?

Are you getting "Unknown Error (-9838)"?
Me and my friends all are.

keep trying keep trying keep trying

it will work eventually
 
First it was an SSL issue, but I got that resolved. Now I get an actual page in Itunes that tells me activations are offline. Apple should've thunk about the amount of bandwidth that they would need launching this thing.

Yeah dude, just keep plugging and unplugging it and eventually it will go through... same happened to me and I was also plenty frustrated at the time, but after plugging it back in about 5 times it went through. Have faith lol, at least you got one.
