50 to 100 people queueing for about 16 iPhones per shop equals around 34 to 84 who will leave empty handed. _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21

Oh, I just assumed that they had all ordered their phones in advance. *shrug* I just hope mine's there when I go to get it later on. Mark

That number of phones was for the carrier shops, no? I think Apple Stores would have more than that. Mark

Any worse than sitting on the phone pressing redial every ten seconds?   _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21

It helps when you've got the store manager holding on for you.

Yes I understand that. I am just jealous. I might have to wait three or four weeks to get my hands on one and the tesco hotline is constantly engaged, So I cannot order one for delivery when they arrive. _________________Do concentrate, 007...

Massive queue outside Apple Store in Belfast.
It looks like I'll be joining the queue after I leave work today but I'm not holding out much hope of getting mine today.

90 minutes before I go and join what is likely to be an even larger queue outside the Apple Store in Belfast.

) I wanted the white one which is not due until mid july but this black one is far nicer than the previous plastic ones. I think I made a good choice not waiting.
