Guess who also queued for the iPhone 3G!

Yep it was me.

Instead of going all the way down to London to do it though, I stayed in York. Having seen no queue at about 1am there, I decided I may as well get some sleep beforehand.
So I returned at 6:30am to find a queue of 19 people. I was #20!
3 and a half hours and a million technical problems later I was on my way out of O2, iPhone 3G in hand! (I even got a small round of applause for being the the first one to walk out with a smile!)

  1. Mike looks like an absolute tard in the last picture… and the other picture too actually.
