iPhone 4 + Glitchy Launch = Huge Demand Anyway

Apple has taken orders for more than half a million next-gen iPhones despite numerous website errors and two AT&T security glitches exposing customers’ personal data.

Now that’s impressive.

Many customers itching for an iPhone 4 this week reported server failures when they attempted to pre-order the handset. In some instances, customers were even erroneously logged into other people’s accounts through AT&T’s website. Acknowledging the security glitch, AT&T temporarily suspended iPhone 4 preorders to resolve the problem.
