AT&T announced Friday, October 14 that it saw a record number of iPhone activations on its network. The iPhone 4S was made available to US customers on AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint this morning.

The carrier confirmed to BGR:

"As of 4:30 pm ET today, AT&T had already activated a record number of iPhones on our network – and is on-track to double our previous record for activations on a single day.

These record volumes may produce slower activations for some customers, though our systems continue to run at record levels."

Despite the fact that many were unable to activate their new iPhones on AT&T today, the carrier still calls the iPhone 4S its "most successful iPhone launch" to date.

AT&T alone was responsible for 200,000 of the 1 million worldwide pre-orders that were placed last Friday.
