The thing is it would not prompt me to setup my voicemail. It would just say "the number you have dialed has not setup it's voicemail box. Goodbye!" and hangup. Normally with AT&T you dial 1 and it connects you and prompts you for setup. But dialing 1 on the iPhone doesn't do sh!t. It just gives an error.
I ended up taking it to the Apple store and they told me I had to hit the star key real quick before it hangs up. After a few tries it worked and then I was guided through the prompts. The Apple Genius even gave me a free screen protector (he had removed the film that originally came on the phone, with my permission).
On another note, I forgot to mention that I think the reason I got my phone so fast is that I bought the 16GB White version. I like the white and when I ordered it I figured it is less popular so I should get it faster. Turns out I was right.
I don't know if I just got extremely lucky or what, but I placed a direct fulfillment order at my local AT&T store Sunday (7/20) and on Tuesday (2/22) afternoon I got a call telling me my iPhone was ready for pickup! I was totally expecting it to take 2+ weeks to come in based on what I read in the news, so I hadn't even backed up my previous phone yet.
I picked it up yesterday and am extremely pleased. Too bad AT&T screwed up and my voicemail is inaccessible right now. When a call goes to voicemail it says "This voicemail box has not been setup yet". I went to the AT&T store and they were useless. Told me I had to go to an Apple store. Hopefully I can get this resolved soon.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
