Would You Stand In This Line To Buy An iPhone?
This post is a bit off topic since it’s not really about inspiration but more about the craziness that companies can cause inside people’s heads: Two days ago Apple started selling the iPhone in the States. Look at this video to see how long the lines in front of the Apple store were. Why are people willing to stand in line for hours for a phone? Is it because they believe that that phone is going to turn their lives around? Is it because they want to be part of a group? Whatever the reason, I think it’s a sad, sad sight. Watch the video.

It will definitely sell, just give it some time, I don't think in the beginning it will work well.

This is so bad! I really can't understand how people can head for something that is so unuseful and fake like the iPhone. It's technical abilities are really low level as almost any i-product (especially the iPod). Besides, LG invented that type of phone and apple stole the concept.
Well done Apple! Great marketing strategies works on stupid consumers. I take my hat off.
