I posted this on another thread. But i'll put it here so it's all in one place.

So i called around as well. I called the local Apple store and the local corporate AT&T store and got the same answer from both--"we don't know."

It's still early. I guarantee you that we know more than most employees. Man, if only i were interested in my job as much as i'm interested in their jobs.

I called the Apple Store in Atlantic City, NJ and spoke with one of their sales people. They had no idea about the 6pm remark Jobs made. They said the phone will be in store on the 29th. So then I asked if they would probably be arriving the day before so that they could be on sale for the 29th in the morning, and the response was that they didn't know. But they said they are expecting them in store for sale on the 29th.

Personally, If nothing solid surfaces either way before the 29th, I will be going in the morning. I'd hate to show up at 6pm to find out the first batch was sold out. grrr.

Between now and then I'll be lurking the forums.

only corporate att stores and apple stores will be selling it at launch. best buy will not have them, neither will radio shack, and all those reseller stores. It is no surprise best buy store knows nothing

Well your asking them about a product they aren't carrying at launch so what did you expect. You might have just gone to a Subway and asked about the iPhone.
