iPhone to come out in 3 days, people preparing

Well the Apple iPhone comes out in 3 days at 6 pm in AT&T stores in the US. Just a note and I just found this out now that Cingular Wireless that bought AT&T is now back to AT&T, the rebranding change just happened this year.



How many people will buy this phone? I just heard the This Week in Tech podcast with Leo Laporte saying that the marketing and advertising on the iPhone is similar to that of Windows 95 and the Sony PlayStation 3, but there are reports that sales may not be as anticipated. In my opinion the phone is pretty expensive about $500 US and Steve Jobs at the Apple WorldWide Developer's Conference (WWDC) announced no third-party development for the iPhone, development is done using the Safari web browser.

Anyways, stories are coming in about how people are preparing for the iPhone launch, this story from Engadget shows the first iPhone camper at the Manhattan New York Apple store.



I wonder how many eBay postings there will be to sell the iPhone over the weekend?
