		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;M STILL WAITING!!!!  I know it&#039;s stupid, but I can barely stand it!!!  Did AT&amp;T&#039;s Direct Fulfilment (HA, what a joke, it&#039;s anything but direct!)
Anyway, maybe it will be shipped this week, which would make a three-week wait worth it. Alas and alack...&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;ll probably show up at the closest ATT store at 10AM, hoping there isn&#039;t a line of more than 5 people, and that there are still phones.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;It&#039;s about time! I&#039;m jumping on board the iPhone train on July 11. Until then, I&#039;ve been managing with my LG enV, with it&#039;s craptacular web browser. Because I&#039;ve been licking up every bit of iPhone-related news/rumor/post, I&#039;ve wanted to read it at all times, but because TiPB didn&#039;t have a mobile version, I realistically couldn&#039;t read it on my current phone. Only 10 days until iDay 2.0, but at least I&#039;ll be able to get my TiPB fix on my mobile until then. Better late than never!&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;ll be waiting outside of AT&amp;T before 8am! The wait is killing me, as this is my first iPhone. I resisted when the first generation came out, because I knew that within a year a newer (3G!) model would be available. I&#039;m glad I waited!!! Come on July 11th! You can&#039;t come soon enough!!!&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;What&#039;s my game plan? I go to work, then I leave at noon and get in my car and drive to suburban Chicago, and have a little vacation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Maybe I&#039;ll update my phone to 2.0 at work if it&#039;s available in the morning (seems likely.)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The only thing I buy on the day it&#039;s available is an OS update or a CD.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;It&#039;s like waiting for Christmas in one way, and Black Friday in another (Christmas = the anticipation and excitement, Black Friday = how early do I start online and will it be there when I get in the door?) Your prize money would really help to!!! Thanks for the fun...&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I would like to go at 8:00am to an AT&amp;T store because I figure it&#039;d be less crowded then an Apple. But I&#039;ll probably won&#039;t be able to make it until noon. I would rather it go on sale at 6:00pm like last year, because then I don&#039;t have to worry about it being sold out. Hopefully it won&#039;t be like when the first iPhone came out. I waited in line for 5 hours last year!&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;If the phone comes out at 8am, then I&#039;ll probably get to &lt;em&gt;either&lt;/em&gt; an AT&amp;T store or an Apple Store (I haven&#039;t decided on which yet, but I&#039;m leaning AT&amp;T) at around 10-11 or so, hoping that I don&#039;t have to wait &lt;em&gt;too&lt;/em&gt; long before I finally have one of these things in my hands.  Luckily, I don&#039;t have to be at work until 12:30.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If the phone comes out at 6pm, then it&#039;s going to be a LOOOONG workday, and probably A LOT of waiting in a line that evening.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m going to be kicking back and watching all the live blogs to see just how smoothly or horribly slow the in-store activation goes. Also kicking back to see everybody&#039;s impression of the fit and finish of the new phone.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;My plan is to wait until the evening (no choice actually... work) and try my luck. If that fails, I have heard rumors that the second shipment will arrive as early as the 12th, so I will try again that day. If I don&#039;t snag one on &quot;opening weekend,&quot; I will wait until Wednesday, and if I fail again, the following weekend. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The conditions for failure aren&#039;t exclusive to them being sold out though. The lines will play a HUGE roll in when I buy. If the in-store activation turns out to be true for everyone, and it really is 10 minutes per phone, and I find myself towards the back of the line... I will just pack it up and go another day. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I really would like to get one on launch day, but I am happy as long as it is within the first week.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Outside of that... I would like to pass a HUGE thank you to The iPhone Blog as a whole for the gift certificate. I was having a craptastic day and that email really helped to brighten things up a bit. Thanks guys!&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;is anyone else not happy with AT&amp;T&#039;s plans...not only do you have to pay $30 for unlimited data which is not bad but also $20 for unlimited texting and $9.99 to be able to use the 3G&#039;s new GPA feature.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Patrick . . . i actually found it to be the complete opposite (the whole AT&amp;T stores selling out of the iPhone). The day it came out last year i was at the Arizona Mills mall in Chandler and i was expecting them to only have like a couple 4 Gigs left . . . i asked if they had any more 8 Gigs. they told me that they had sold about 4 or 5 iPhones in total. So i think that you&#039;ll be safer going to AT&amp;T. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Good luck though :) &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;LOL, That was the day that i was offered a job at that location as an iPhone expert because i knew so much about the phone. I was only 15 (and i lived in another city)  at the time so they just gave me a name tag and some free ringtones. hehehe.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m waiting a few weeks until the rush wears off before making a decision.  In all likelihood I&#039;ll stick with my 1st gen iphone and use the 2.0 firmware to keep me entertained.  All you iphone 3G early adopters will be envious when the real next-gen iphone launches next year.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;the game plan . . . though i would LOVE to wait in line (honestly i really would love to be around people who love apple just as much as me). I&#039;ll most likely be stuck at home, waiting for my mom to get ready, then it&#039;s off to AT&amp;T to get my forthcoming birthday present. WOOT! Until then, i&#039;m reading up on the phone, watching YouTube videos, leaving comments, even going to the AT&amp;T store and playing with 1st gen. iPhones . . . anything to satisfy my obsession over this phone. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Still nothing seems to make the time pass faster . . . maybe the $100 for iTunes would take my mind off of this phone (but i&#039;m thinking nothing can at this point). I have the count down widget and now that this comment is done i only have 10 days 7 hours 55 minutes and 15 seconds more to wait.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I will be at home loading V2.0 onto my current iPhone and reading all about the new one here;) 
I probably will then start downloading some new apps from the app store!!&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Already took off work July 11th. I waited in line over 6 hours last year, I doubt that the launch will be @ 8AM. I&#039;m thinking it&#039;ll be the usual 6PM, either time I&#039;ll be there. 3G &amp; GPS is gonna be sweet.  Great podcast guys!&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;ll likely go to the local AT&amp;T store at about 6 AM.  If there&#039;s a line I&#039;ll join it.  If not, I&#039;ll go to the Starbucks across the street with my laptop for a while then line up again closer to the scheduled opening time.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;ll be on vacation in Philadelphia, where there are several Apple and AT&amp;T stores. I don&#039;t know if I want to waste half a day of vacation just to stand in line and get the new iPhone. I may end up doing that or I might wait a couple days and hope they don&#039;t run out of stock.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;ll try to get to the apple store by 6 or 7 am, if it looks too crazy I might walk down to the AT&amp;T store. Otherwise I&#039;m going to wait in line. I&#039;ve been waiting since April so I&#039;m kinda going nuts right now. Plus this will be my first iPhone, I&#039;ve had a samsung flip phone for the past 8 months and I&#039;ve been coveting this thing for so long! Just another week...&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m probably driving out to the nearest Apple store for 6 AM, checking how long the line is, then deciding whether I should go have some breakfast at a nearby McDonald&#039;s or just stand in line awaiting the imminent release. Then shelling out the $200 along with the extra $30 for data and playing with my new shiny device for the rest of the day.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I think I will wait at least a week to see what other people say about it that buy it earlier.  I am not the type to camp out for anything.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;On the 11th I will be glued to the computer with a slight tear rolling slowly down my cheek as I read blogs and news reports of people picking up their iPhone and the new secrets they are discovering (please let there be secrets!)
I will be waiting until my day comes (the 17th) then doing a victory dance all the way to AT&amp;T.
Who knows.. maybe I&#039;ll wear a dress and heels... nah.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Going to relatively small local ATT COR store around 10:30 or 11:00 (assuming they open in the morning).  Hopefully by then the initial line will be more manageable and beat the lunch crowd.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That is assuming I can force myself to wait until 10:30...&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Whoever wins this 3G iPhone or the 100$ gift card is a very lucky person:P. I never won anything like this!!! But there is always a first time.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I can&#039;t understand people who will sleep outside of stores to buy something first. It&#039;s like if they won&#039;t get it right away they will kill themselves!! Can&#039;t you wait a day or a two?&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Downloading v2 software on my old iPhone.  Maybe buy something from the App Store if it&#039;s online and something cheap catches my eye.  I&#039;m going to wait a bit and see how the reviews come in before committing to AT&amp;T (again) for the iPhone 3G.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Hopefully the supply of 3Gs will be plentiful (unlike finding a Wii, which I liken to catching a leprechaun).  Dieter, I just might have to cave in and upgrade given that AT&amp;T said I could :)&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m not waiting in line but I want to get the phone on the 11th if at all possible. I found a new AT&amp;T store that few people seem to know about yet (and is far enough out of the way that hopefully people won&#039;t flock there), so I&#039;m hoping I&#039;ll be able to walk in and get one. I&#039;ll probably follow the blogs/forums and see what people are reporting. If it&#039;s too crazy I&#039;ll just wait a few days (although I&#039;m leaving shortly thereafter and I want it before I leave).&lt;/p&gt;

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m not waiting in line but I want to get the phone on the 11th if at all possible. I found a new AT&amp;T store that few people seem to know about yet (and is far enough out of the way that hopefully people won&#8217;t flock there), so I&#8217;m hoping I&#8217;ll be able to walk in and get one. I&#8217;ll probably follow the blogs/forums and see what people are reporting.

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Trying to get the IT folks to get my Exchange set up after my 2.0 upgrade. Oh, and probably helping a friend who&#039;s totally going to get a 3G set his up!&lt;/p&gt;
