Apple Inc. To Unveil iPhone 6S And Apple TV
Philip "Phil" Schiller, senior vice president of worldwide marketing at Apple Inc., speaks about the Apple Inc. iPhone 6s and 6s Plus smartphones during an Apple product announcement in San Francisco, California, U.S., on Wednesday, Sept. 9, 2015. Apple Inc. introduced a larger iPad with a 12.9-inch screen, designed to attract business users and jump-start demand for its tablets.

If you try to preorder an iPhone 6S or 6S Plus, reports The Loop’s Dave Mark, you’ll be greeted with this message:

464708642092

It’s not that the phone is “sold-out,” as Mark suggests. It’s more likely that there were a finite number of reservation slots, and those have been filled.
