lol wow, i could see camping out for a 360, but for a phone? :picard: i guess if you play with your phone that much then its worth it. i get annoyed enough just using my piece and having to text 40000 people a day since no one wants to talk anymore :picard:

What a waste of money. BlackBerry Hands down.:thankyou:  
Funny I say this because I’m a MAC user.

So dmoffitt and I camped out from 5:30am until the 6pm launch. It was a blast. A ton of friends came by to keep us company, and the people around us were mad cool. We were second and fourth in line and I got the last of 5 available 8 gig models (bought it for a friend who couldn’t be there, since I had already planned to be there anyway).

Camped out? I walked into the store and walked out with 2 iphones 10 minutes later…I missed the last 8gb by like 2 mins…oh well just gonna have to get one tomorrow

I remember hearing about them. They seem pretty cool but will follow the iPhone design with no keyboard. I personally dont like this but some people love it.

Also, carrying the Prada name would make it super flashy and super expensive I am guessing.

Joe - most of the AT&T stores in Roc got a TINY allotment. It’s Rochester, remember? We don’t count 😉 Apple had a bunch - but I’m not sure if even they had 8GBs left by the end of Friday.

Besides, I was excited about it, and had a light day Friday and since I work for myself, I just brought my laptop, ran an extension cord from my truck parked 20 feet away and used my wireless WAN card and sat outside on a 70-75 degree sunny day. Not a bad way to work, period, nevermind wanting a phone.

Playing witha 4GB right now, I like the 300 people who went back to the store and rioted because they couldn’t activate it

Nice job AT&T…

Typing really sucks, faster than I thought it would be, but still sucks.

i just went over to the apple store on my lunch break and played with it. had there not been mobs of people waiting to play with it and asking me questions about best buy having it cheaper, i would have liked to play with it longer.

i think i liked it. :squint:

2 hours later and 50 e-mails composed, it still sucks.

Even my blackberry 8800 is better to type on, and I think THAT sucks. Well, compared to the 8703…
