Okay, admittedly I'm a little hacked off at apple. I love my 3g and have been a huge advocate for iPhone. About a month ago I get an email from Apple titled "Inteoducing the iPhone 4G", so I click on it. It takes me to Apple.com's iphone4 site where I watch a video of the iphone4. I am totally sold. I have to have one of these things.
The site clearly explains that the presale begins on the 15th. Well, evidentaly I'm so stupid that I think this is the fastest way to squire one. I called the number on the morning of the 15th and after waiting on hold for an hour I very helpful guy answers. But, no fault of his own, the systems were failing and after trying for a half hour, it was concluded he couldn't place the order. The following morning I tried again and succesfully placed my order. In spite of the fact that they could see I had talked to them on the opening day of the presale, it was detemined that my phone would ship on July 14th.
Huh. AT&T is supposed to recieve a shippment on the 29th of June so I'm imagining semi's moving millions of iphon 4's all around the nation to all the Apple retail stores as well as AT&T's. That's great! A lady out getting a new pair of slacks, on her way back to her car sees an AT&T store and on impulse decides to pop in and pick up a new iphone4, meanwhile I still have to wait another month.
Is it just me, or was this whole presale a joke? I mean, they have my money.
