What immediately springs to mind regarding a successful launch is Apple, and the launch of the iPhone 3G here in Sweden. No pre-orders were possible, but it was available the exact minute Telia and Apple said it would be. Telia's servers went on their knees as expected due to the demand, but I got one from the first batch.

The iPhone 3G was, with the first version of the OS, the buggiest piece of technology I've ever used (before or since). But that is a whole other thing!
