Tags: iphone 3g sydney apple queue night quiet store
The last time I walked past here was 11 July 2008. iPhone 3G crowds were queued up through the building, onto the footpath and around the corner. Seems MUCH quieter tonight. Time to go in and see if i can convince myself to get an iPhone.

FWIW, it's almost two weeks since the iPhone 3G was released and people are still waiting outside the shop before opening time each morning to ensure they get hold of one. It would seem that Apple Australia are reserving the bulk of their stock for their own store as most Optus stores are quoting a 2-3 week wait.
