When it was finally released in the US, it was widespread chaos. People lined up outside Apple stores for days before they were to be released, and hundreds of thousands of people preordered on the Apple website, which caused it to crash for a short period of time. It was obvious that even though Apple got all these orders for their phone, they wouldn’t be able to fill all the orders on the dates they promised.

What’s even worse than this, though, is that outside the US, the iPhone 4 isn’t even readily available everywhere. So, while the US gets to play with their new phones, the rest of the world has to wait until it gets released in their home country, and who knows how long that could be.

When a new, hot product from Apple comes out, there is no doubt there are going to be issues with availability because everyone wants one. But, when you finally do get yours, you will see that is was well worth the wait and you will have a great iPhone to use.
