Apple now sold out of iPhone 4 as well? New orders pushed back to July 2
June 15, 2010 at 8:34 PM

iPhone 4 orders pushed back to July 2

We tried to end the day, we really did, but the July 2 shipping date now being presented by Apple Online Store for iPhone 4 yanked us back up off the floor. We heard before AT&T was out of launch-day stock, could Apple be as well?

Looks that way, but sometimes when we refresh the site it’s going back to June 24. Right now it’s at July 2 again. Maybe they’re having trouble coming to terms with it?

Either way, we’re already trying to imagine the massive sales number Apple’s post pre-order iPhone press release will read. (Can we call it an even applezillion sold?)

If you’re still trying to order, let us know what date you’re getting.

[Thanks Jeff for the tip!]

Official "I survived iPhone 4 pre-order day" comment thread
June 15, 2010 at 5:48 PM

iphone-4-pre-order-20100611

Phew. What a crazy iPhone 4 pre-order day! The Apple Online store went up and came down — again and again. No white iPhone 4 were available. Apple’s new Apple Store app for iPhone came out, and promptly had iPhone pre-ordering removed from its functionality. AT&T managed to disrupt service to the extent people couldn’t even complete the ordering process (or even got their account compromised). Not that the TiPb nation stopped trying.

Now as day turns to night, AT&T is sold out, other carriers out-to-lunch (since they’re too busy to announce plans, they must be…), we found out international iPhone 4 could now be had unlocked, and we’re once again rendered near exhausted by Apple’s pre-event events, we turn the comments over to you.

Celebrate, commiserate, laugh, cry, regale us with your war stories and battle scars, or just mellow out and chat the night away. You’ve earned it.

XGear Shield Case for iPad – accessory review
June 15, 2010 at 5:33 PM

If you're looking for a sturdy and transparent skin, the “XGear Shield case for iPad for $29.95 may be the case for you.

The XGear Shield is made from dual-compound materials that creates a shock absorbing bumper on the edges. Translation: it has thick edges that fit securely to the iPad that can reduce damage to the corners if bumped. Though not completely transparent, XGear Shield has more of a frosted backing that and not only looks good but totally protects the back and sides of iPad and gives you complete piece of mind from scratches.

There are two things that I really like about this case. The first is how secure it is. There are some cases that fit, but the edges and corners are loose. While this may make for easy removal, I fear it can get caught on something and slip off of the iPad. This is not the case with the XGear Shield. The edges are actually a challenge to put on and remove so you know the case isn’t going anywhere. On the downside, it doesn’t allow for docking with the iPad dock. All of the openings are there, but the power button has given me some challenges. Turning on is easy though by tapping the home button instead.

Video and photos after the break!

Pros

  • Protects edges and back of iPad
  • Very sturdy Accessibility to all ports
  • Fits securely around the iPad’s edges

Cons

  • Does not work with iPad dock
  • Power button can be a challenge to press
  • No color options
