June 24

If the preorders were "sold out" yesterday through all the channels will Apple, AT&T and the rest turn away everyone from the stores on June 24 that did not preorder? I know the answer is no because they love the long lines and the publicity but what is the purpose of going to the store if you did not preorder unless they are not going to fulfill all the reserved units to the folks that reserved them?

You managed to answer your own question, publicity....

Stores get a certain amount separate from reorders so they have them for walk Ins. I used to be in the cell business.

At&t and Apple will have some in store for launch. Thats why they only reserve so many and leave so many for release day walk ins
