I’m just back from paying my tax to Apple and upgrading to the latest iPhone 3GS. I was a bit surprised to find a short wait at my local Apple store. While inside I learned that Apple has once again launched their iPhone Availability page which this year features hour by hour stock status reports on which stores have the iPhone available for purchase. While I don’t think there are going to be widespread shortages, this online availability chart sure beats having to call the local store and wait on hold.
