Say It Ain’t So…

Mobile Entertainment reports that some people have WAY too much time on their hands. Okay, well not exactly, but the news does fit nicely into that assumption. The story comes from Geardiary, who reports that at around noon on July 4th (EST) there was already a line forming outside the Apple store. At the time, there was about a dozen or so people standing in front of the store. Apparently there was even a couple with a baby waiting in line. The article states that this could just be a publicity stunt and that these folks may have been trying to set a record for longest time in line. With the release of the 3G iPhone set for Friday, July 11th, and today being July 7th, I wonder how long that line is now…

When it comes to Apple or the iPhone, I know that this kind of behavior is just not surprising to most people. Not even the part about the couple with the baby. However, if this is not a publicity stunt, Mobile Entertainment says, “The alternative is very, very depressing.”

They took the words right out of my mouth.
