AT&T stores are rationing iPhones

If, in light of the current iPhone shortage, you were planning on raiding AT&T stores to stock up on iPhones and resell them at high prices, you might be a little disappointed to find that the mobile operator’s retail locations are now limiting the number of iPhones that customers can buy.

According to a leaked internal memo, customers at AT&T stores can now buy only one iPhone each—this was confirmed by Macworld via calls to AT&T stores. In addition, checks and cash will no longer be accepted for buying iPhones: you’ll need to use a credit card.

Well, so much for my new business plan.
