The Apple store at the Mall of America was… uh, not very busy today. Surprising, since today was the first day you could get your Verizon iPhone without being an existing Verizon customer.
Verizon set a new record for first day sales of a new product in 2 hours last week, when they sold the device to existing customers. It seems that the predicted flood of AT&T customers isn’t happening quite yet.
Maybe AT&T in Minneapolis (and the rest of the United States) isn’t as bad as everyone in San Fransisco and New York seem to make it out to be? Kinda like I said last month?
No, that couldn’t be it.
Update: It seems that not even New York city is all that excited. As evidenced by the lack of line outside the famous Manhattan glass Apple cube. Photo via @rhapsodyartist
So did the most vocal critics of AT&T already get their phone? Or are people toughing it out until the iPhone 5?
