The iPhone Ordeal


Ok, so I have an iPhone now.  The Chico ATT store was a zoo.  I arrived around 6:30 and was somewhere around 40th in line. Three hours later I was finally able to walk out of the store with two iPhones with the help of my brand-new good buddy Gavin.  He was in line ahead of me with another guy, but he wasn't buying.  So I borrowed him to fill the one person one iPhone rule.  They had huge problems with the computer system, since I was doing the family plan it was more complex.  Finally they muddled through and I had my phones.

Now I'm sitting at home with the other bajillions of people trying to activate their phones.  No luck so far.  You'd think they would have prepared for this.  You'd think the headache they had last time they rolled out the original iPhone they'd have learned their lesson.  But no.  

On the plus side the guy that sold me the phone was a buddy from college named Jeff.  I'll have to get back in touch with him when the store isn't full of screaming fans.

I'll post again when my iPhone is anything but an iBrick.
