Now if you want to hear something that I found almost hard to believe, although I know I work in a very small town, when I went by my At&T store this afternoon just to assure myself that my phone had arrived (I had already received the email stating that it had, I just was paranoid a bit I guess...and kinda hoped they'd give it to me early!), I was told that I was the ONLY preorder at my store! They even showed me the folder that they had set aside for preorder receipts, and mine was the only in it! I would have thought that there would have been at least a few more, but I guess the economy in this town has gotten worse than I thought. Thank goodness our business hasn't dropped off too much.
There are seven people in line at the Swisscom store on Bahnhofstrasse in Zuerich while down the street at the Apple store there are five. I went past an Orange store a few hours ago; there were two people there. I've been here for twenty minutes and the store is opening pretty soon.
There are times I like to think of myself as a hardcore Apple supporter
Then I hear about people setting up tents outside doors and remember I am nowhere close to being one

hot wife?? Id be interested in proof.. Its i lie unless you got a pic of your "hot wife"
and yea, its still sad that you are waiting outside a store overnight for a phone!! none-the-less, a phone that could be preordered and delivered to your house.. AND a phone thats not all that different than the one that most people already have.

For me.... Fedex.... and no.... ill be busy drooling at the window with my laptop, probably posting on these forums cuz I have no life.... lol
I have only camped out overnight for a product launch once before, and that was for a wii... It wasn't that I really was dying to have a wii, it was more of a spur of the moment thing. It was actually a great time - you shouldn't make fun of people that choose to camp out for the phone.
at least you are honest and not thinking you are one of the cool guys
And to follow up.... shortly after that.... I will probably be on my laptop posting on these forums cuz I have no life.... while my iPhone 3G S is updating
I think its cool to wait in line for the phone. Not by yourself mind you, but with other people. I can't wait till tomorrow morning at the Southpark mall in Charlotte, NC. Get to hang out with all my fellow iPhone fans. If only it weren't 30 minutes away, I'd drive over there right now.
How about ppl that ordered more than 1 phone with home delivery
are yall lined up at the front door if so who's first and how long of a line

You are SOOO in denial.. that or just, well, socially inept.. Or maybe you are in a high school where having the newest thing really is the coolest thing on the planet.. either way, when you finally come into the real world.. you will realize how totally and completely UNCOOL it is.
I mean, I am a huge gadget geek, I admit it. I get all giggly and stupid when talking about some new awesome toy.. but i know it's not cool.. just admit it to yourself.. Be at peace with the fact that you are, well, a geek.. a dork. Someone who really cares SOO MUCH about a phone that you will give up an entire night of your life.. for a phone
I'm a geek.. but i'm not gonna wait in line when a phone is available preorder and delivered to my house. why in the WORLD???
I waited outside the ATT store last year, and I had a blast. I was expecting to just keep to myself and watch a movie, but everyone in like was so friendly. We talked for the entire time (~5.5 hrs for me). It was a lot of fun. I would do it again for sure.
Umm.. I'm not in denial at all. I'm definitely a geek. I'm not ashamed to admit it either. You clearly did not understand my post at all. I never said I was trying to be cool at all. Who cares about be cool? I'm not in highschool, but you obviously are.
It's a night...what else is he going to do sleep? It's only once a year that something like this happens. Get off his case.
