Funny that I have both a family and very well paying job but decided to take the day off to enjoy the excitement. For me it's not about the device but the experience. Call me a fanboy or whatever but I have a preorder and am still going to be there early. Not because I need to but because I want to enjoy the entire launch experience.


Fanboy
 
Short Pump/Richmond, VA - no one in line, but prep for hundreds - the store is wrapped in black cloth with lots of movement inside.

Wow really? I go to VCU and have been stressing over whether or not Sprint was going to ship my phone.
 
Drove by 2 local BestBuy stores and there is no line. Wow. Either they gave out vouchers early or stock is constrained that people didnt bother lining up
 
Do you not realise how painful it is watching portrait videos?

Do yourself a favour-film something in portrait mode, then, film the same scene in landscape mode.

Tell us which one you think looks far more loaded with detail, natural and (above all) interesting.

If you're catching a quick video, especially while driving, I imagine it was easier to capture in portrait, or not even thought about. It's not being submitted for video of the year, you'll live.
 
My best buy got no 6+ and only a handful of 6's. Currently first at my Verizon store. They told me before closing that they wouldn't have any 128gb.

this reminds me of when I bought my iPhone 5s. Every store I went to had them out of stock on launch day. Then I decided to try walmart, and what do you know, they did not even know they had them in stock, got my 5s on launch day without waiting in line.
 
Im in line at the moment and 6th person in line so far as of 12:53 Yeah i shouldnt be camping out but im having a good time visiting new people and chatting.
 
Yupp. It's a Mercedes. It belongs to the guy in front of me. He's buying two 128 plus gold. So he says.

OK lets see a picture of Mercedes guy. It's got to be more interesting than a fence post. :cool: Tell him it's for the interwebs. He'll be famous. Gold phones and all.
 
I don't get it. Why camp for a whole day when simply setting the alarm for 12am last Friday to preorder guaranteed you a phone day one.

I can personally guarantee that this was hardly the case.

I'm pretty sure all retail locations have a LOPC policy in place.

From a couple of my friends who work at bestbuy. They aren't getting very many phones at all for the next week or so.
