Rather than write only about Apple’s iPhone 4 launch that set records by selling out 600,000 pre-orders well in advance of launch day, the Geeks have decided to tell a tale of two mobile phone releases: Sprint’s release of the HTC EVO 4G and AT&T’s pre-order release of Apple’s iPhone 4.

It’s official (according to BGR and Engadget), the iPhone 4 pre-orders have been completely sold out and anyone who was actually able to place an order after 1:30p Pacific will get their iPhone between June 25th and July 5th. If you were unable to pre-order, you still might be able to walk in on launch day without a pre-order and get one of the unallocated units… good luck if you try!
Engadget was able to obtain the following confirmation from AT&T:
“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.”
Ordering through the AT&T site is down, must be June and time to pre-order the new iPhone… You’d think AT&T would have learned their lesson by now.
AT&T has failed again under the demand for pre-orders of the iPhone 4. Gadget blogs throughout the blog-iverse are reporting that the connections to AT&T have been failing since this morning. Most people see the error included in the image above (taken during my attempts this morning), “Your session expired”, “Your request couldn’t be processed” or simply “Processing information.”

Atari’s new party game, Ready 2 Rumble Revolution for the Wii, drops on March 17th. The game improves considerably from the Wii Sports boxing game with 18 caricatured boxers which are parodies of celebrities from sports, music and music. The games looks like it will be a party hit.
Amazon has the game $10 off for pre-order between now and March 17th.
