iPhone 3G Advice: Don’t Stand in Line

Started by Sid Yadav · 11 months ago

I am perplexed why people would waste their time waiting on lines to buy a new 3G iPhone.  Yes, I happen to have an iPhone myself, and yes, I plan on getting the 3G version, however….you will not find me waiting in order to get one.
If the iPhone maniacs took a step back and calculated the amount of time they will waste waiting for their new ... Continue reading »

  • Good point.

    Actually, I don`t like iPhone at all.

    You`r articles are GREAT Craig!
  • Queen, don't get me wrong, I love my iphone (except when it freezes up) and wouldn't want a different phone. But I can certainly wait a while for the excitement to die down before purchasing the new one.
  • you, your good you.
  • I agree Craig, ridiculous.
  • It's true. But I dont think that it will make up the lost time that we've waiting for it. I'm also planning to buy an IPhone but dont know whitch one.
  • I don't like talking on the phone and fortunately I am not a gadget geek so I don't have to stress myself out about keeping up with the next person or having the newest phone available, but I do like reading Craig's articles! Thanks Craig, I certainly will not stand in line for a phone...ever!
  • Hey! Is being a gadget geek a bad thing! I think it is sexy!
  • I just love your articles, Craig!
    They are amazing.
  • Thanks Kirsten, or should I say TAKK!
  • Bare hyggelig!! As usual!
  • That was funny and very true. I too am an owner of the 4GB fossil. I guess that is why I agree. 90 days from now there will be a 32GB Iphone for 50% less money and no one will stand on line for that. I am happy to be an AAPL shareholder and do not mind paying up once or twice for the newest tech / nerd toy. The gains in my portfolio can more then absorb the difference. (that was before I looked today)
  • I too ran out and got the original iphone only to be somewhat disappointed....and then it was half of the price I paid about a month later. To be honest, I prefer my blackberry and I'll anxiously await the new Blackberry Bold
  • I have a Blackberry curve and its awesome. I dont worry about new stuff . I depend on reliable tech. This blackberry has proved to be dependable and it would take a lot to switch. Joe
  • I felt the same way about my original sidekick, but once I got the iPhone and got used to its features, I am not sure I could go on without it!
  • Great post!!! outstanding point.................
  • Type your comment here.
    I can't imagine why anyone would wait in line for ANYTHING, especially a phone. Everyone knows the new technology will be out in a few months to replace what you just wasted your time and money on. The whole thing amazes me.
  • Similar to when a new car comes out and people pay over sticker price for it! How absurb
  • Ive been a fan of yours on worstpizza.com, I am glad you turned me onto this site as well!!!!
  • I think it is too fragile and too expensive for me---and they don't offer insurance if you lose or break it.
  • That is why I bought a case!
  • What a great post. I dont know who this Craig guy is, but he does have some very interesting and strange thoughts which happen to be all true. what a following he is getting. I need to get this guy to blog about my newest product set to be released soon. Stay tuned.
  • I wouldnt wait in line for anything new, brand new goods are always overpriced. Wait a few months then buy, thats my advice!
  • Wow iphone is good really good
  • Yeah I can never see myself in the position of waiting in line for a new gadget. I am never desperate enough to get the gadget to wait in line for hours.

  • Even if I really, really want the gadget, I'd rather wait for a bit so that bugs can be sorted out.
  • It is still selling like hot cakes. It is THE gadget to own. The most attractive component is the touch screen.
  • I think iPhone 3G is great . especially the internet connection great. i guess its worth the wait. Great article !
  • Iphone is a cell phone just like many others available out there.
