Hobnobbing in front of Walnut Creek’s Apple Store with the iWait.org crowd, who were holding places on line to be among the first to purchase the highly anticipated new Apple iPhone. Visiting around 4 pm, I asked an iWait kid, about number twelve in line, how much he was selling his place in line for. His answer, “Two-fifty.”
The glass front of the Apple store was covered from the inside with heavy black paper, I assume to be unveiled at the 6 pm iPhone sales opening. There was a carnival atmosphere building Friday evening at Walnut Creek’s upscale shopping district, the pulse quickening with iPhone launch excitement.
For those who care not to wait, there are plenty of exotic phone gadgets already on the market, such as this Verizon LG model (below).
