It appears consumers did not get the memo that Apple’s new iPhone 4S was underwhelming. Both AT&T and Sprint have reported on their initial iPhone 4S orders and the results are very good. A couple notable quotes from AllThingsD:

AT&T: “AT&T has seen extraordinary demand for iPhone 4S, with more than 200,000 preorders in the first 12 hours alone, the most successful iPhone launch we’ve ever had,” an AT&T representative told AllThingsD

Sprint: “We are very, very pleased with the initial first day of iPhone 4S preorders,” Sprint Vice President of Product Development Fared Adib said in a statement. “Today’s sales and the overall customer experience greatly exceeded our expectations.”

Apple sold out of iPhone 4S pre-orders, pushing back the ship date by up-to two-weeks.

Verizon has yet to release a statement on their iPhone 4S sales results.
