All these wait times are over exaggerated

[Steviejobz]

So many threads and reports of 20 block lines, camping for weeks, etc. I went into an AT&T store during lunch at 2pm, there were 7 people waiting outside. Earlier in the day there was a line around the block. Well in about an hour, I was already out of the store with a new iPhone 6. Cancelled my 6+ on Apple.com (was way too big after playing with floor model) and was done.

I don't think am ever going to stress out over 3am pre orders ever again. It may be a function of living in NYC or we have to realize Apple wants to sell as many of these as soon as possible.

Best of luck to all that are waiting. The store where I bought mine still have over 60 iPhone 6's when I left. No 128GB but other models.

Learned this lesson like two iPhones ago. No point in stressing out, just go to best buy or radio shack (no one ever remembers radio shack)
