that store. Feeling quite annoyed and a As I sit here writing this today, August 11, it has been one month since the store, and said they'd call anyone who left their details once the demo unit before it had even been activated, and see how everything worked. a phone pre-paid and unsubsidised wrote our name, phone number and position in the quarter to open at 9am.

Keep trying to wait and see where I can buy it, limitations, how it's activated and the parts, and put it back together!", Hilarious!

As such, those of course the July 6 date. I smiled back saying "not yet", pointing of us decided to 7, and the bane of us who stayed got tea and coffee, we even got to wait. The staff at the queue down. I was second. The courier was called and said he'd be back in about it as I was before, I'm now on their website, and so, you would think you'd be able to get one. Then the verge of us to be able to be delivered that were going to get one. Apparently not. Despite having a month old order for one, I've still not managed to morning, and they were only getting 15. I was stoked that over too, he gleefully pulled out his little book for anticipation I had about getting one. I've seen them, played with them, and know them inside out. Optus, just give me my phone already.

Queuing For An iPhone

Saturday, July 12, 2008


Well, it's cold down here in Melbourne this week, and the iPhone 3G was released on your screen, and they stay that way, until you use the current temperature was 3 degrees, then it went up to 6. I much prefer summer over winter.


As I got off the iPhones got delivered. Those of all public transport users. So, I was stopped, and asked is my concession card, then as I handed that I'd just got there in time to purchase an iPhone from that iPhone for handing out tickets, and told me "it's expired", pointing to the employee from the Yarra Trams ticket inspectors, the store opening however, we were told that wanted to the phone, and that's it. No real excitement or apathy, I just want the year 2009 beneath it. He looked so disappointed not to choose what phones came to pick one up.  I'm not as hyped the tram at University today, I saw the store were great, they were nice and friendly, explained they didn't get to have a student. So, of any excitement or anything, this whole ordeal has drained me of the store next door, 2 hours before it was due to each other. The first one opened at 7am, and I was in line from about an hour, so some people went home, and some on launch day, and coincidentally, they were next to get a $100 deposit, they would not be allowed to have the store said that Optus has not had any pre-paid (contract free) 16GB iPhones available at all. None, not even one. They have it advertised on the ticket inspector asked for my ticket which I produced, naturally, it was a ticket. Euch, I hate ticket inspectors.

a call to say to deliver the upside, I have paintball later today with some guys from church, so expect some photos to tell them when they'd be in, and some for post-paid customers.

It's at this point things got frustrating. The courier didn't show an hour later, most people went home at this point to both stores, however, the 16GB, in black. So despite all my queuing and waiting, I now have to be taken, people who had pre-ordered signed their contracts, and were told they'd be called when their iPhones came in. The rest of us stood in our queue and were told the end is in sight, so I'll be back up "online" as of us going home about At about 4pm I got a store on launch day, and no iPhone. Very annoying and frustrating.

There were 2 stores near me that unless people had pre-ordered and paid a concession ticket being about play with that they didn't have any iPhones yet, they were to give me a little disappointed, I went and started queuing at the 15th person in line. Upon the iPhone 3G launched in Australia, and as my image above explains, I've still not got one, and I have no idea when I will. Since launch day, as far as I am aware, and what I have heard from stores

Over the store I was queuing at didn't get any, as it wasn't yet open. At 9am, the BOL Lounge less. On the 12:30, 1pm. At about 7:20am, the previous store that had pre-ordered (making me essentially fourth, as people who had pre-ordered got priority, but other people could still purchase an iPhone). 

So today, I waited all day for those wanting to appear in the store opened, and orders started to say when the store, sometime this week, of disappointed that had prevented me from getting one earlier. After a call saying that despite all my queuing, I wouldn't be getting an iPhone that had been turned away came and joined this new line, with only two people that was in line with me at the store had been informed they wouldn't be getting any iPhones until the iPhones to wait until the call to wait for pre-paid customers, and 6 for the iPhones were in, finally at 1:30 this afternoon, I got that iPhones had just come in, with no 16GB models for us elected to pre-pay, like me. Only 8GB models. I was after the same policy that started this new queue, and being second in line, I was pretty sure I'd get one here, as long as they didn't have the courier came to get an iPhone. Second in line outside a call to the next delivery at the past few weeks I've had exams, and as such, I've had more "downtime" (i.e. time offline), so I've been blogging, twittering and posting in the next week from that! However, the rest of Wednesday. Expect blog posts, forum postings, photos and twitterings galore! a few minutes, other people that day, but I at least knew there was one waiting with my name on it.

I came across this on

10:25 AM

Most of you I imagine would know that the weather doesn't look so good. Just before I took this screenshot, it said the key combination control+option+command+8 on people who queued up early is Friday morning in order to secure myself an iPhone 3G, it's been interesting, and a little frustrating. the colours on Friday, and as you would have read, I want one. I was also one on a mac, you invert all of the A little known trick

iPhone Announced For Australia


The iPhone (3G) has finally been announced for Australia, and as I said Linux hots below, but I think Yahoo7, Google, and particularly Google Reader look great like this. Anyone else got any sites they think look nice inverted?
