I was finally able to obtain a new iphone today after several failed attempts. My previous iphone had stopped functioning in certain crucial ways, and it has been a fucking ordeal to hand someone $300 and get a new one.

Congratulations - I hope she fares better.
Was there a line at 7am? I'm considering going tomorrow morning.

Yes there was, although I was close enough to the front arriving at 7am for it not to have made much difference from the people who arrived earlier. I was back in the car by 9am. I'm sure it varies randomly, but based on today I would say 7am is a good ETA.

A tricky part is figuring out how to get inside the mall. You'll probably want to go to the parking deck by Lenox Road. Park on the bottom floor and go inside near the gym.

Hit me up if you get it; there's lots of neat iphone-centric software that I am curious to mess with with other people.

Woke up too late today, but I will definitely ping you when I do get it.

iPhone achieved!

It was the second to the last available for the day.
You'd think it was a Cabbage Patch Kid or something.

I've never shared your warm feelings for the iCompany, but I totally understand what it means to be serious about your devices and spend seriously on them. Still, fool me once, shame on you. Fool me a third time, well...

They use very shitty cell phones and pagers for IEDs.

your iPhone on the other hand could have gotten exported to a rogue nation and they are fashioning her into the guidance system of a medium range missile.
