iPhone 4 Sold Out for Launch Day at AT&T and At Least Parts of Europe

BoyGenius reports that all of the AT&T pre-order iPhones have been allotted already. Engadget received a statement from AT&T confirming the sellout:

"Because of the incredible interest in iPhone 4, today was the busiest online sales day in AT&T history. As of Tuesday afternoon, customers who preorder iPhone 4 moving forward will receive their device on June 25 or later, depending on when the order is placed. We'll email customers with confirmation once their order is placed, and again when it ships. In addition, we will have devices available on a first-come, first-serve basis in our stores beginning on June 24."

Apple's own U.S. website still shows ship dates of June 24th if you pre-order now.

We've also heard reports from international customers that local Apple Stores in the UK and Germany's T-Mobile are also sold out of the launch day iPhone 4s.

Sure, the US Apple store still shows June 24th, but the site doesn't work!

Apple isn't out of stock yet because it's broken!

EDIT: So as of 3:50 PST My order just went through on the Apple US site. I hammered it with requests till one finally got as far as the cart, and after that it seemed to work fine! It still showed the delivery date of June 24th.

Now just waiting on the confirmation email.

You have to be able to get in first. Pre-order? HA!

I agree. How has anyone been able to preorder anything when the site has been throwing up error messages and expired sessions all day.

The UK store isn't sold out yet because I literally just pre-ordered the 16GB Black one for the 24th from Regent's Street after reading this article!!

I just received an order confirmation that states this: "Because of the incredible volume of orders we received, there is a slight chance that some customers may receive their devices between June 25 and June 28."

Hopefully I made it in time (the Engadget post says 1:30 PM PST is the cutoff). I went to my local AT&T Store and (according to my receipt) I bought it at 1:32 PM PST. Hopefully they were just rounding to the nearest half-hour when they released that statement and I'm safe.
