Bum rush or one at a time

[justahsquirrel]

ok ok...we all know ..at least by now....the store closes at 2pm....lines forming before....I'll be on the line.....now....how are apple and att going to handle the rush when the doors open? at they gonna have the phones stacked up on a shelf for us to pick? or are we gonna have to bum rush the sales guy?
are they gonna take a few at a time.......this is mind boggling....I ...we all need to know before someone gets trampled....Apple should post something on how the will control the crowd...anyone called apple or att to see what they are doing about crowd control?

There has been rumors of wrist band handouts.

Not expecting lines at my locale

I expect apple stores to be more organized than at&t stores. Heck at&t associates weren't even trained til this week and seem to know next to nothing. This is a recipe for disaster. I expect angry consumers at at&t come friday.

I'm not expecting lines either, but I'm preparing for long lines, just in case. I am definately getting an iphone, lol. Not much demand in Southern Mississippi though :P

Flash mob. Let's do this.

if you aren't expecting any lines I suppose you make sure your spot you have staked out is even getting any iphones. Everywhere there are iphones there will be lines, rest assured.

Thinking worst case scenario Wristbanditos

I would assume that Apple will have something in place. Either wristbands or tickets. I really hope that ATT has something set up or else just has someone "bouncing" at the door, letting a certain number of people in at a time. I would imagine if the lines are crazy they have to do something like that for fire code. I know the ATT store I'll be at is tiny so I can't imagine that many people are allowed in at one time.

Yep wristbands or ticket stubs. All to be handed out promptly at 6pm
