I Hope You Didn't Wait In Line...

For those of you who were obsessed with getting an iPhone, I hope you weren't stupid enough to wait in line:

Me: "You're probably all out of iPhones, right? I wanted to touch one."

AT&T Dude: "Sure, we've got 8gig and 4gigs."

Me: "Waaa? You're not sold out? Didn't you have campers here?"

AT&T Dude: "Yes, but they got their iPhones, and we have hundreds left."

Me: "What's this? Hundreds you say? Why'd they camp out."

AT&T Dude: "I dunno, I mean, it's cool, but you're here on the next day"

Personally I agree with Jeff Atwood.  I'm waiting until version 2.0, or a good imitator.

"I wanted to touch one."

Plenty of people get into trouble shortly after uttering those words... :)

I laugh at the thousands who promptly put their iPhones on eBay hoping for a big score. Just one problem: you need scarcity.

As for alternatives I'm eyeing the Helio Ocean. It has an actual, physical keyboard and is on a 3G network. Not sure how good the web surfing is.
