Apple Posts Online iPhone 3GS Availability Database

Apple has posted an online database to allow potential iPhone 3GS customers in the U.S. to check stock levels for the various models at Apple Retail Stores. Availability is updated at least hourly. Apple deployed similar tools for both the original iPhone and the iPhone 3G, although these previous versions only updated nightly with stock levels for opening the following day.


Apple's database is currently showing solid availability, with nearly 90% of Apple's over 200 stores having stock of all four models. Only five stores are completely sold out of all models at the moment.

For those who have not gotten their phone yet, i just spoke with the nicest rep at Apple and they just put up the availability tool today at

http://www.apple.com/iphone/buy/

Now you can see which stores have them. He said if it is green, then they have 10 or more in stock.

Hope this helps for some. :)



P.S. If it is red,he said it does not mean that they do not have. It just means it is limited. You need to call to see how many they have.
