Cool Camping out

So with the ability to pre-order online and have the iPhone 3GS delivered by the 19th, am I gonna be the only person camping out at an apple store next Thursday? Provided they still allow it like they did with iDay 1 and 2, that is.

Who else is with me?

That date was misleading. The confirmation emails show that the ship date is the 19th with a delivery date within 5 business days.

I think the lines will still be long since people want them on release day.

Funny, I live about 6 blocks from the Apple Store but I still refuse to wait in any line. I chose to have mine shipped. LOL..Oh well, I will probably still go over there to look and in the meantime buy some accessories for the 3GS.

I actually think the lines will be a bit smaller this year (but still fairly long).

I agree, shorter than previous years, but still long.

Agreed! I don't think it's going to be as hectic and crazy like the last two releases. I never camped out for either release. There are so many AT&T stores in this valley. Not to mention 4 apple stores.

I'll be in an AT&T store line. I wonder if they will swap my numbers between my two phones or tell me it's too busy? Hmmm, maybe I'll swap then a day or so ahead of the release, that's an idea!
