If you can't get one in places like New York city, something isn't right. The idea there is one in Omaha Nebraska, but not New York says to me they don't have their distribution set up right.
If it was the other way around, it would make sense to me. I'd say "of course they have them in NYC...". But it really seems like they weren't ready to sell this one yet. I understand keeping a tight supply is part of the marketing campaign. But, if you don't have any that won't do.
Don't get me wrong, if they said "if you want one you have to go to the big store in NYC", I would say "I'm going to wait a while". But, having the premier phone only on 5th avenue, I'd understand.
It would also make sense to me if folks bid on them. If there were only two in the country and people got into a bidding war and paid thousands or more for the first few phones, I"d understand that. But, they're fixed price.
All it is really saying to me is Apple wasn't ready.
It is still fun, for me anyhow, plugging random zip codes into the program and seeing what comes up. Some day, when they get their supply chain fixed, I will probably get a new phone.
