That's probably their initial allotment. Last year the at&t stores only got 50 to start with, so 80 would be a 60% increase.

8 boxes, 20 iphones per box. hmmmm 160 iphones per att store. thats a pretty good amount. they wont sell out.

I thought there was only 10/box. Yep only 10.

Nope, there's 20.

My local ATT store said they got 160 as well... so that sounds right as well.

Sorry, Cols seems right to me. Look closely at the box - there is 2 rows of 5, and seemingly not a second row under it.

Looks like you guys are right... but my ATT store did say that they have 160 for the initial launch.

Most likely each store gets a different number of boxes to allocate for varied population distribution, and account for a cluster of AT&T stores in a single area.

Wow, she has the same job that I had when I was 16 (shelf stacker).
