I must be crazy.

Person #3 in a mini iQueue outside the Apple Store Sydney. 40mins till opening time. Freaking cold day to be doing this. Someone bring me a straight jacket!

This is it.

After we (the first 30) spilled inside to the warmth of the store, we had to form three queues, depending on your preferred carrier. The numbers shaped up like this:

Optus: 29
Vodafone: 1
Telstra: 0

The one Vodafone punter, Chris, was next to me in the queue outside (iQueue idiot #4). Top bloke and it was great to have someone normal* chat with. He is in real estate (agency in Drummoyne) and had to go with Vodafone as it's his company's carrier.

#1 - Busy on his laptop posting to Mac forums (iFanboi)
#2 - Watching Buffy on his Ipod Touch and reading a World of Warcraft strategy guide (iFanboi)

To work we go!

For a change, I think I am going to appreciate the warm (albeit stuffy) conditions inside the carriage.

Just testing this in low light.

Snapped this in one of the meeting rooms with the light off. Sun had just about set so little natural light. Rather noisy but still passable.

The GPS works very well.

Shame there's no voice guidance though. Not that I need it on a train, I guess. ;-)

NOT sent from my iPhone. ;-)

Come on Apple, show me how to do a 1sec slow exposure like this.
