People have already started lining up at the 5th Ave Apple Store in NYC.

When do you guys plan on staking out the iPhone or will you?

I think I'll go an hour or two after the lauch to stay in with the crowd. Not the best plan but i hope i can get one!

Right now, I am not sure if I am going or not. Plus it would be a huge crowd up here.

Yeah i don't live in a very crowded area so i think there might be some left if I'm lucky.

I'm excited about the new iPhone, but I've never stood in line for new technology on the release day.

There still isn't confirmation that the Apple Stores will open at 8:00 AM. And since the mall near me opens at 10:00, I don't know how that will affect the launch since the Apple Store is inside the mall.

Whenever that gets announced, I will probably go an hour after the launch time. While I'm psyched about the iPhone, I'm not one to wait in line for 3 or 4 hours...

Does the Apple store there have a front door or is its only entry through the mall? That could be a deciding factor if they are going to open at 8.

Yeah I've never really waited in line for anything like this because nothing has really been worth waiting for since this. I definitely wouldn't go in line right now either!

Yeah, I can't imagine waiting in line. I will go once I have enough money saved up

Sounds like you're contradicting yourself, Sam!

I agree with your first statement...this IS something I would also consider waiting in line for - but I'm just kinda lazy and will probably pay for my laziness by not being able to get it on the first day!

Hm. Maybe I should change my plans and fly up to NYC and join the extremists there!




Or not.

Seriously, though - there's so much hype that I'm now wondering if I should make it there early (as in early morning, not the night before).
