Yeah, I'm considering the Red Bug store, but I might try Waterford as well. There are two stores that literally face each other in Waterford! I think only one is a corporate store though. There are a bunch of corporate stores down near the mall at millennia, that's a little out of my way...but at least there is a good cluster of stores down there. Also, most people that make their way down there will probably clog the Apple Store.

If you guys go to the Red Bug store, what time do you think you'll get in line?

Yeah, I was thinking about getting out there early in the day, but with the time of release being pushed back to 6pm, I'll probably try for the mid afternoon. I might drive by and see if there are lines earlier than this.

I bet they aren't even delivered to the stores until after 4pm. I highly doubt they'll let the phones sit in a stock room for a few days.

see i dont think its going to sell at 6pm. i really think that the store will start selling them in the morning once they wake up. im going to call a few store the night before and ask, im sure they will let you know what time they r going on sale

Well, as much as I wish they would start selling these things earlier than 6pm, I sure hope that ATT doesn't sell early. It would make the whole day very confusing and probably one large egg hunt.

I am banking on the fact that FedEx will probably do an afternoon delivery of the iPhones to all the ATT/Apple Stores and the early afternoon might be the first time any store receives them. I know the Apple store will probably do this, but I also think the ATT might close shop around 4-6pm and then re-open for the iPhone release. If this was just an Apple thing, I'd say "no chance" before 6pm, but with ATT involved, who the heck knows.

I'll call around before that Friday and post whatever information I can find, so we can all figure out the Orlando iPhone situation!

Sounds good, let us know if you find anything out, and I'll do the same.

Hey!

New here, but I WILL be camping in Orlando at the Millennia Mall Apple Store. My wife may join me by camping at the AT&T store in the same mall. I have already spoken with them, and they said they will have the iPhones.

I know there isn't much local buzz, but I just bet there will be crazy lines for this thing! I hope I get one, but I don't want to wait in line all day for NOTHING! I wish we knew how many they will be getting, so we can estimate our chances in line.

It would be in Apple/AT&T's interest to let folks in line (past a certain point) that they have no shot at a launch day phone...

Anybody out there going to join me at Millennia?

Hey, I will be at the Apple Store @ Millenia with my a buddy or two from work. I am afraid there will be more iPhone buyers than you think. Hopefully, having the Apple Store @ The Florida Mall so close will help cut down lines.... not to mention the several AT&Ts around.

Right now I plan on getting there around Noon.

See you in less than two weeks...
