Idiot buys spot in line for $900

No mention of the tsunami in Japan? Really?

That was item #4 -- Earthquake.

BTW -- still no mention of iPad 2 on the local paper's website. The top story remains NCAA basketball.

Also -- as someone posted elsewhere, the Apple stores likely have 1000+ units. If your local store has a line that gets that deep, go somewhere else. There are tons of these things out there -- the last number I remember seeing was 1.5 million. Apple knows their demand. They might sell out in a few hot locations, but they will not sell out widely.

I'm assuming the 4) earthquake was meant as the tsunami as the tsunami was caused by the earthquake.

An Apple Promotional Team could be buying places in the line. It gets the grapevine talking and good or bad the digital chatter works out for them in the long term.

If I had money to throw away like that I would rather pay someone to be on line for me.
