Report AT&T Limits iPhone Sales To 1 Per Customer
AT&T (T) is now limiting sales of the Apple (AAPL) iPhone to one per customer, according to a memo to its retail stores published by the blog Boy Genius Report.
Earlier this week, Apple’s online store started listing the iPhone as “currently unavailable.”
Expectations remain high that the company will unveil a 3G iPhone soon, perhaps at the company’s Worldwide Developers Conference next month in San Francisco.
Apple today is off $2.34, or 1.1%, to $187.62.
Hmmmmmmmmmmm………….
Toni?
so what?
The new iPhone will be released earlier than expected. Get some stock while it’s still cheap.
Whats with this market wide tech sell-off since 3:30 est?
Apple shed $6 from its high.
Rimm and AMZN are also way down.
it’s called profit taking.. been waiting for that
Eric you’re a GENIUS!
The longer the 3G phone takes, the tougher the competition will be. Nokia, HTC, RIM aren’t sleeping
aapl is still virtiginously too high and should be around 170 to be stable.
Doesn’t matter if Nokia, HTC, RIM aren’t sleeping; they won’t be running the MAC OS on their phones; its more about the software, and the hardware is just a delivery instrument.
Should be around 170 to be stable? What the hell do you know,toohigh?
Whatever douche, toohigh is right, its all about the software.
Why is AT&T holding Apple back???? The sooner that the 1st iPhones are sold, the sooner that the new iPhones would come out.They are always promoting Blackberries over iPhones, even to shoppers in to buy an iPhone. It seems to me that they are a real backstabbing “partner”!!!!!!!
It sounds like Cramer’s crew of short sellers have jumped in. Get whip lashed you gamblers. Go to “Lost” Vegas and make your losing bets there..
Guys, this is not a big deal. When I started selling the Apple II way back when, we limited customers to only 3 units. Though, technically no ever bought more than one, but that’s not the point. The point is, it’s okay. Apple shares are poised to fly high now, like Rocky Balboa, “flying high now… he is strong now… flying high now…”
I have 300 shares of Apple. I bought at $130. I really hope it raises above $200 soon.
My family really needs this money.
Same to you,true,what the hell do you know?
What I know is that you are the kind of sucker who thinks that
aapl is involnurable to corrections and raids which is why you will hold onto aapl no matter how far it goes down like most of the bloggers here. What someone like Savitz knows is that people like you make the stock more vulnerable because they can cover other loses with aapl profit tkaing and come back later in june to
ride it up because they know you’ll be holding on the whole time.
So, investors who hold on to stock for the long term are suckers huh?
Sounds like you shorted Apple and would like to see it go back to $170.
toohigh,I don’t play your shorting game.I am a firm believer in Apple & their products. I see one helluva a future in just holding the stock & watching its inevitible monster growth.I don’t need to make quick,easy gains.I’m in no hurry.Apple is going to kick ass for several more years.Yes, it will go down again but I think it has some serious upside for many years to come.Just like good ol’ antie,you keep hoping for that ridiculous “86″ or I guess for you its now “170″ but I feel pretty confident that it won’t see that number anytime soon.Like AAPLpie use to say,maybe after a 2:1 split at the end of the year.I have made a ton of money over the years just holding on to this winner & I’m not selling no matter what you shorting clowns do or say.
toohigh get a life! you r really a sucker!
NY used the Title The Big Apple, Now known as ex- NY’rs as the Rotten Apple.
What will we call Apple when it is burised or on it’s way out
What is a burise, “the captain?” What are 2 of the most respected companies in the world? Apple and Lego! I went to the Glendale Galleria mall near LA, and there is a Lego store right next to the Apple store. In light of both companies’ reputations, I believe the next iPhone will be made of Legos! It will be called iPhone LEGO 9001. By-the-way, this was written from my iPhone.
