New iPhone lines

**george** · 2010-06-24, 05:48 PM

So I reserved the new iPhone at Roosevelt Field, I figured I'd wait till after work and bypass the rush of people in the morning.... I get to the mall and there is a huge line. Easily over a hundred people here.... Good thing there is free wifi here :borat:

I love the fact you can have your own wallpaper now with iOS4!

You always could on the lock screen. You just had to know how.

I know that and had one..but the lock screen wallpaper was pretty pointless considering its not part of the device you use all the time.

The reason why I didnt go to Roosevelt Field was because I knew it would be a riot. The Walt Whitman mall Apple store generally has less lines.

Tom, you got it?

I dont get people. You could give the the phone free and paid with the first year service and I still would not leave the comfort of my bed to be there at 6 AM.

If I do want it, it will be there next week and the following week 8) .....

We all know people go crazy for Apple products. There is some unknown force that attracts people to them. If Apple re-made a unibody Apple Newton people would line up to get it.

Personally, I take Apple products for what they are.

No, I have an iPod and the new iOS4 OS runs the iTouch as well. I have the HTC Incredible with Google's Android OS on Verizon and love it. The iPhone is certainly a good device but the fact of the matter that cannot be disputed is that AT&T's network is terrible... For me its about the network your on. Using the iPhone on AT&T's network is driving a sports car hitting every red light. Verizon's network is just a better network, hands down.

Did you hear the one about an official with AT&T getting married to someone from Apple? The service was great, but the reception sucked.

Jobs gives the Russian President a new iphone. LOLOL

In the interests of disclosure, I have a 3G for two years now and do plan on upgrading in a few months to the 4 when the hysteria dies down. Here in the DFW area I haven't had an issue with reception/speed, but I've had more trouble in the Austin area prior to the infrastructure upgrades down there in the last year. NE San Antonio for some reason is a trouble zone for me.
