Re:Assuming Apple allows you to buy it (Score 1)

On release day I had a similar situation. While waiting in line (about 15 minutes from the front of the line) an applestore kid came out and asked if any of us were on a company discount code.. raised my hand and was informed that I wouldn't be allowed to buy one (!) and that I'd need to go to my ATT store and buy one there instead, yeeeeah right, the Reno ATT stores only had like 20 or 30 phones each and were sold out in the first hour that morning. I hopped on 611 real quick while in line and had ATT remove my discount code, all was good and I walked out of the store 17 minutes later with an activated new pretty thing. Two days later I was able to go back online and reapply my discount code.
