Only 24% of Apple Retail Stores Still Have 3G iPhones

More than 75% of Apple Retail Stores that open their doors for business Wednesday morning will be without 3G iPhones. No black or white, no 8GB or 16GB -- completely sold out. According to the 3G Avaiability Tool, only 15 states out of a possible 38 that host Apple locations still have the 2nd generation iPhones for sale. Yes, that means 23 states (for all you non-math majors lazy bastards) are iPhoneless just 6 days after launch. When 1800 AT&T retail stores sold out fairly immediately upon launch last Friday (with no firm restocking dates set), Apple became the last and only option for iPhone hopefuls. But now that window is closing as well... The iPhone 3G remains in only 45 out of the 188 Apple locations nationwide. A somber figure if you're still looking to purchase one, as that number was at 71 just yesterday. Even grimmer still if you had your fingers set on tapping, pinching, and dragging on a 16GB model in black, as only 12 stores in the entire country can fill your need.
