For the record, Chris Bethel was fifth in line. Charles Ellsworth was fourth. I am in the video for a split second (note that I am standing in front of Chris). I was wearing a white shirt and tan cap. I was there at 2AM. Once I got in the store, I would say I was out of the store in 15 minutes or less. There was a nice group of people in line and the experience was worth it.
However, I ended up with an iBrick until 6pm, when I finally activated my phone at home. iTunes was bogged down. Can't blame Apple after a 1 million sellout in the first day and everyone is trying to activate it through iTunes.
After what seemed like an eternity of waiting, I was impressed with my new gadget and quickly forgot about my phone not working. It's way better than any phone out there, even the old iPhone. Reflecting on when I have stopped to look at other model phones and they say its a contendor to compete with the iPhone - not even close. Apple has succeeded in setting the bar even higher. I would go so far as to say that they are untouchable because Apple has put so many groundbreaking technologies into one device THAT WORK flawlessly.
I didn't think that fourth place would get mentioned, but when I saw the error, I just had to say something.
