Yea, me too... But how many other will buy the other jsut to sell it off? That will hurt the peeps in line waiting just for one.

this could be a good thing though, if they're gunna allow everyone to buy 2 then that may mean they have more iphones at launch than they originally planned cuz normally with something like this all you here is LIMIT ONE PER CUSTOMER!!!!

Bingo! That's an excellent indication that Apple stores will have a big fat supply of phones.

I had intended to go an AT&T store now I'm going to switch to an Apple store because I need to get a phone for my wife too.

Anyone want to start estimating how many phones each store will get based on this new information?

Great imo this is not good, just more phones for eBayers.

You also should consider Apple has 164 US stores, ATT has 1800...I am sure the allocations will be similar (50-50, 55-45) just with att stores individual stores will receive supplies based on location.

If Apple is ampley stocked on iphones, people surely wont want to buy them on eBay. It will be probably be more expensive for the person to do so because the seller will not want to make a personal loss. No one over seas with the right mind would buy one, because a) it wouldnt work, b) by the time it is released in Europe and Asia it will *fingers crossed* hopefully be 3G ready, so an Edge equipt phone would be worthless- AT&T dont even have a UK presence to my knowledge so Edge wouldnt exist? =/ Meh, who knows
