With the problems the iPhone has been having. yeah that is crazy. - Colide81 (James)

In Poland,Orange had to pay actors to queue up. In the UK and the US, people queue up for free. And we call ourselves 'capitalists'? ;-) I am not making this up; the FT reported this. - shefaly

The line was 25 people. Can u believe that? The phone has been out two months. - Steve Rubel

I'd rather buy a PDA and a phone. - Ron

maybe they all read that report that they were back in stock? - Phil Glockner

I think 'bout 1000 phones were sold in the first month in all of India. With a billion+ people. "Impressive" - Yuvi (has IRL friends!)

Wow. Can anyone remember another phone that people were willing to wait for months after it came out? - Andrew Warner

Maybe the store found hidden stock of original iPhones. Half the price, twice the battery life? ;) - Kevin C. Tofel

It took me about 5 minutes to get my new iPhone yesterday (giving mine to my wife) - Jesse Stay

there is something really weird about that mental image... - turn.self.off
