I went to my local apple store to see about getting a new iPhone (and giving my old one to my son). Last week was a zoo and so today the line was short-- maybe 15 people. So I asked about coming back latter. They said that even now the line would talke 2 hrs !!! and that even if I was on the line they could not assure me that there would be a unit available at the end of 2 hours.
I am seeing the same lines at the Apple store in Portland, Oregon. I don't have the time to play such games. I don't know many people who can. (I get irritated if I have to spend more than 15 minutes in line at the bank.) I plan on waiting for Google Android or get the OpenMoko. (Being able to write code for my phone is a big plus for me.) ------------------------------------------- Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/247/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/247/ Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
