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 (scribkin)

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

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

Cute! - Rebecca Briggs

It sounds like Seinfeld wrote it. Funny, Jerry always had a Mac on his desk. - Phil Boiarski

@Phil, Yes, but did he ever once use it? Or try to eat it? - Wade Dorrell

The video and audio are out of sync. So unusual for MS to get it half right ;-) - gfurry

My prediction - this one will make a lot more sense once the other Seinfeld/Gates commercials are aired. - Mike Boudreaux

I don't get the new MS ad. I usually get ads when other people don't. I'm still wondering what it all means.http://is.gd/2esR - JungleG

I don't think these will ever really make sense or are supposed to. It's all about "lifestyle", I think. Just make microsoft a little groovy. Question is: is Seinfeld still in touch with the masses? At least I'll say this: his nonchalance seems as fresh as ever. Will it "cool" dorky Bill? I have my doubts. - Alex von Halem via twhirl

I'm doing more on Facebook, that's for sure, but all of the new interactivity seems to be an imitation of what happens here on FF. - Iain Baker

I'm the opposite, more FF than Facebook. They need to make the "Home" page more like the new profiles. I can't comment or contribute to most of the stuff on my home page and I'm not about to click through to view everyone's profile. - Jon West

Steve, exactly what/how are you interacting on there? - Zee at WeDoCreative

I take all of the cool content from FriendFeed and share it over on Facebook... Thanks for the content, guys! ;-) - Lisa L. Seifert

Seriously, very few (like 4!) of my RL friends are on FF and probably won't ever be. In fact, many of them are just starting to get the hang of Facebook and many still aren't even on FB yet! Weird, I know. So I try to bring a little bit of the FriendFeed lovin' over there when I feel like resharing. :-) - Lisa L. Seifert

Might it be cause of Facebook's more private approach to communication and possibility of messagin together with usage of all fancy apps - besides sharing info? - Hayk Hakobyan

Friend Feed Rocks! there are no Rules! We own the Network! What more should I say? ;-) - Igor The Troll
