Lines outside Apple Store SoHo in Manhattan continue to build swelling into the hundreds.

Some enterprising line-waiters even brought along their own mini Ping Pong table!

The iPhone release just made the national TV news in Ireland.

"Enrique iGlesias will sing at the SOHO store."

The latest crowd dispersion technique in action.

To jonahan

Yes, you're right.

There is ZERO 'coolness factor' here in Florida this time of year.

Funny, Zune Tang doesn't seem to be around...do you think he is in line in disguise?

Thanks for the pics, ChrissyOne! Great to finally see a picture of you. grin

P.S. Your photos are copyrighted 2006. That's quite the scoop you got!

@ coolfactor

I threw those together so quickly that I left an old metadata template on. >.<

Actually, I used my WayBack Camera.

@C1

Nice picts! BTW, you must be in a different "year" zone... copyright says 2006! wink

Jun 29, 07 - 12:47 pm Comment from: Mr. Reeee

Oh, DAMN!
My friend Sheryl took those pix and emailed them to me.
So, me? I just passed 'em along...

I must say, it's pretty weird to see so many people waiting in line like this. What happens when the Apple Store runs out of iPhones? Break out the dogs!

Here Ballmer... KILL!

MDN Magic Word: SIZE... does it REALLY?

Re: iPhone line at Lenox (Atlanta)

I'm headed that way! (I'll be the one with tentacles.)

Sorry if the link won't open in a 'new window' (not sure how to do that)

And isn't it nice that all the people are queued-up in such an orderly fashion ?

Damn, I feel like just standing in line for the hell of it. Looks like fun! I'm only like 10 blocks from the SOHO store, aaarrrgh!

Stupid. Job.
