Not this bloody kid again. Shouldn't he be doing his homework instead of pretending he knows about technology? I don't bash Apple but if you think owning a ton of Apple products and being able to utter the words 'RAM' and 'Gigabyte' makes you a technology genius, think again.

I think someone's jealous.
 
They seem to make a big deal about the first buyer at these apple launches. Do they get anything free or just the embarrassement?

You remember those folks that would post on forums just so they could call first.

This is the ultimate expression of that inane delight.

No other reward is needed
 
And THIS is what gives apple users a bad name. Every year, every single year. Celebrating waiting days/weeks in line for a product that is only a slight variation of last years product.
 
I'm so torn between this and the new Mini. Maybe I'll buy one of each. :D

Don't be stupid man! Get an iPad Air, the best iPad they've made yet.

Mum, is it ok if I go and camp outside the Apple store in the middle of the city on my own overnight? Their will be all sorts of total strangers of different ages camping too...

yes son that's fine!
 
Jesus Christ that unboxing video and horrible cheesy music


Wannabe apple commercials



I couldn't make it through that apple line video, just too embarrassing to watch. I'll show up at 8am when best buy opens and that's it

It is people who can't let others enjoy their life in their own way which is sad.

So what if someone likes Star Trek, My Little Pony, One Direction, whatever it is, and you don't ? Let them have their fun, leave them alone, and you enjoy what you enjoy.

It's sad the hate some people have over other people's joy.

And just because one person expresses their joy of Apple products one way does not mean all other Apple purchasers feel the same.

I totally agree here. Let people enjoy themselves.
 
I was hoping that I would be able to grip the iPad Air edge to edge with one hand when held in the portrait position. By the looks of it I don't think I will be able to accomplish that. I might have to wait for the many.
 
I guess in one of those "multiple countries," they say "DEBOXING."

Which one? (HINT: They speak Anglish there.)

I was about to agree with you until you outed yourself as liking my little pony, there is in fact a problem with grown men liking a cartoon aimed at young girls
 
Nothing at SB in Japan

Virtually ZERO stock of the cellular versions at Softbank in Japan. Was within 3 major stores when they opened at 11:00am (yep) and they were all ready...with pre-order forms...no iPads in sight. You rock as usual Softbank.
 
I hate that they do launches at midnight PACIFIC time. Why? Just so it's inconvenient to everyone who doesn't live in California?
 
From the second video it looks like it still comes with the old style charger in AU instead of the smaller one like my 5s.

Yes it is still the old style charger. I assume it is because it is a 12W charger and so needs to be bigger.

The iPhone 5s came with the new smaller charger in Australia.

And why should I care? I've never waited in line for an Apple product launch. Ever. And still, I have nothing against those who camp out for stuff.

I mean really- while some Apple fans are choosing to wait in line for their iPad Air as you read this, other people are drinking their lives away at bars and destroying their families. Some men are in the process of soliciting child prostitutes in shady areas all around the world. Innocent people are getting held up and robbed at gunpoint. Right now.

But yeah, let's all take this opportunity to crap all over people who sit in chairs for a while, buy something, and go home.
 
This makes me ashamed to admit I use Apple products. Even wedding videos are less sentimental. Excuse me while I vomit.
