Great NYT I-phone buying frenzy photos
Can't post the direct link, but if you go here you'll see the little camera icon and the tagline "Slideshow: I-phone mania".
I love the first photo (closeup of faces of two black guys framing the SOHO Applestore window) and the one of the 1st purchaser leaving the 5th Ave store, surrounded by applauding Apple staff (reminds me of photos of Tour de France stage winners mobbed by the crowd at the finish line).
Damned, I missed out on all this! What was I thinking--if nothing else I could've sold my spot in line? Think about the people who had the foresight to show up first. They're now mini celebrities. Christ, some of them might already have contracts to write their memoirs. If nothing else, it looks like it must've been a party in the streets the past few evenings.

I cannot wait until my current contract is done. \
