Stood in line for 3 hours, was in the Apple store for 10 minutes.
Picked my plan (already had an iPhone) and was out.
Came back, plugged it up, activated it immediately.. done.

Apparently it's going very badly, as the Activation server seems to
be down currently. Lots of folks updating to 2.0 software are ending
up with bricks -- new software is installed, but the phone can't be
reactivated. Hope that gets fixed soon.

Waited in line from 0330 to 0815. I was number 8 into the store. It
only took until 0950 for me to have two iPhones without my existing

going
very well for the staff in the AT&T store, I am interested how the
Apple
stores are fairing.

I'll admit it. I wanted to see what it would be like to be one of

It =20
seemed like it would be a nerd's version of a rave.
I now have one, after standing in line literally from 0700 to 1030,
watching people buy places in line for hundreds of dollars =20
(including Soldiers who offered their spots for $200...and they
were =20
serious). Listening to the rumors that the hackers were already =20
trying to disrupt the service...I now have an Iphone, car charger

and holster...but will have to go back again because some AT&T
dweeb =20
didn't know what he was doing and my ride had to make a wedding in

Atlanta and couldn't wait for me to try to find someone to fix the

issue.
So I'm $400 poorer, without a working Iphone. Way to go, AT&T.
It's ugly out there, people.=20
