While Waiting to Purchase Your iPhone

Are you considering an iPhone purchase on June 29th? If so, prepare yourself for the following while waiting to make your purchase:

  1. Long lines.
  2. News crews with cameras in your face -- if they ask you anything about purchasing the iPhone just yell out "AppleHound.com"! Thanks.
  3. A bunch of people obsessing over time like never before... counting the milliseconds to 6 PM.
  4. Conversations about if there will be enough phones for the 21st, 41st, or 201st person in line. If Apple and AT&T want to control the crazed fanboys they should consider communicating quantities upfront. Also, they need to be prepared with a good speech to calm down those people that will likely be turned away without a phone in hand.
  1. People camping out in their lawn chair with a fancy MacBook situated on their lap.
  2. T-shirts that read "There's no place like 127.0.0.1", "Geek Inside", "Insufficient Memory", and many more.
  3. If the corporate communication channels remain as open as they are today, there will be wild prognostications about data plan rates and possible "top secret" features.
  4. Other customers in line will try to convince you that the smart people are going to wait for the second generation iPhone, thus reducing their in-line competition.
  5. Swooning at any mention of Steve Jobs.

What other fun stuff are you expecting to experience while waiting in line?
