As predicted the demand for Apple newest Shiny iPhone 4 is unprecedented, The numbers (the orders) are through the roof. The demand was so great that it halted Apple’s & At&t’s ability to process pre-orders.

According to Apple – They have already sold 600,000 iPhone 4 across the world breaking all previous records. According to Apple iPhone 4 pre-Orders were 10 times that of iPhone 3GS on opening day.

AT&T said in a statement that they have suspended the iPhone 4 Pre-Orders this late afternoon in order to fulfil the orders they have already received. AT&T released the following statement.

iPhone 4 pre-order sales yesterday were 10-times higher than the first day of pre-ordering for the iPhone 3G S last year. Consumers are clearly excited about iPhone 4, AT&T’s more affordable data plans and our early upgrade pricing.

Given this unprecedented demand and our current expectations for our iPhone 4 inventory levels when the device is available June 24, we’re suspending pre-ordering today in order to fulfill the orders we’ve already received.

The availability of additional inventory will determine if we can resume taking pre-orders.

In addition to unprecedented pre-order sales, yesterday there were more than 13 million visits to AT&T’s website where customers can check to see if they are eligible to upgrade to a new phone; that number is about 3-times higher than the previous record for eligibility upgrade checks in one day.
