so naturally, Apple's and AT&T's servers have crashed. There are actually lines in front of stores to pre-order and wait in line again next week. This bodes well for the popularity of the product, and the potential market-wide adoption of Apple's open Face Time video calling standards, but does nothing to push Apple/AT&T to improve the actual service or pricing plans. It looks like we'll all buy the iPhone even though the data/voice services are expensive AND unreliable. I hate myself a little for so wanting one, and will be pre-ordering mine as soon as the coast is clear.
Actually, word is that Radio Shack may be the best place to get one next week: no anticipated lines AND they'll pay for your trade-in. Nice.
