Just when I thought I wouldn’t have to wait like everyone else–I still might. Even reserving the new iPhone might not guarantee the availability on the morning of the 24th of this month.
This morning at 5:30am Apple opened the flood gates for pre-ordering the new iPhone4. Unlike in previous releases of this game-changing product line you could reserve this one for pickup. The reserving scheme started with the iPad release. Also at 5:30am.
