$30 iTunes Store voucher for FREE from Apple

Were you among the ones not able to activate his iPhone 3G S and was being told that the activation could take up 48 hours ? Well the issue seems to be widespread as many owners of the new iPhone got a similar message. It is being reported that Apple has issued emails to those who are still suffering activation issues and offering them a $30 iTunes Store voucher. Here's is the entire text of the email:

Dear Apple Customer,

Thank you for your recent Apple Store order. We appreciate your patience and apologize for the inconvenience caused by the delay in your iPhone activation.

We are still resolving the issue that was encountered while activating your iPhone with AT&T. Unfortunately, due to system issues and continued high activation volumes, this could take us up to an additional 48 hours to complete.

On Monday, you’ll receive an email from Apple with an iTunes Store credit in the amount of $30. We hope you will enjoy this gift and accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience this delay has caused.

Thank you for choosing Apple.

Sincerely,
Apple Online Store Team
