Wish I could afford to take a week off and pay for the phone LOL. Thats a lot if you are not using vacation pay...
well.. I guess sitting next to a 24 hour apple store, he will always have a place to go (to the bathroom).
You have got to be kidding me. It is freaking Monday in New York. The phone comes out in four days. That is just nuts. Camping four days to get at a phone. Yeah, its a cool phone, but i don't think it'd be worth four days of my life wasted waiting outside for it.
But, then again, I suppose that i'm not the one camping. To each his own.

Because they will get national publicity. Not to mention reinforcing the image of crazy Mac cultist's who will stand in line 5 days for a flippin' cell phone.
something else
There must be something else to this camping out thing that I don't get. For example, people did it for the Star Wars movies too. In reality that is even more stupid because you could easily just watch the movie a few hours later. So why trade several days of your life for seeing a movie a few hours earlier?
I suppose it is kind of like an idiots version of going to the moon. Yeah, we did science up there, but a big part of it was just going. Of course, the journey to the moon caused many peope to use their brains and develop new technologies. Since idiots can't do this, their version of going to the moon in camping out in front of a store or movie theater.
So basically- yeah- they're just dumb.

This bunch of loony tunes really need to just park those little beach chairs right in the middle of Fifth Avenue and do us all a favor.
