Yesterday's kickoff of iPhone 4 pre-orders turned out to be nothing short of mayhem. Sites went down and sites came up. AT&T's order system buckled, and every phone Apple had allocated to June 24th home deliveries is already spoken for -- new pre-orders from Apple won't ship until July 2nd.
UPDATE: New pre-orders from Apple will now ship by July 14th.
Now, BGR is reporting that AT&T has distributed a memo to its employees that any and all iPhone 4 pre-orders have been halted until further notice.
The alleged memo from AT&T reads:
Pre-orders for iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS 8GB are Temporarily SuspendedEffective close of business on June 15, 2010, the ability to place pre-orders (new activations, upgrades and exchanges) has been temporarily suspended. There is a special team that will be manually working all pre-orders from June 15th that were held in a pending status. Under no circumstances should new pre-orders be attempted in the system.
This suspension impacts Phoenix, Premier, OPUS (COR), and System X (DMDR).
Please stay tuned to future bulletin communications for any updates.
We'll be sure to keep you updated as iPhone 4 pre-order availability comes and goes.
