Well… I am one of the thousands holding a useless iPhone today. At 6:20 am PST, I started the the slow upgrade. I went through a download, backup, 3 restarts, and a restore. Then after all of that, in the process of activating, I get a long “Accessing iTunes Store” wait.
This goes on for 20 or so minutes, in which time, I decided to check to see if MobileMe was up… OOps, looks like that is down too:
Then, iTunes finally gives me an error message:
I am not exactly going to sell my stock now but this will not be good marketing. Apple is trying to break into the enterprise market and I think this will make I.T. departments think twice. From reports that I have seen this is effecting both 3G users and EDGE users that are upgrading around the world. My Advice… WAIT.
