Dan Pourhadi live von vor dem Apple Store Oak Brook im US-Staat Illinois:
»I’m sitting in front of the Apple Store Oakbrook
here in Oak Brook, IL.,
along with sixteen other crazies.
The first in line, a nice lady
by the name of Jamene Reynolds,
got here at 3-freakin-a.m.
The rest trickled in
a little after that.
It’s no Michigan Avenue line, but
it continues to grow
with each passing minute.
One kid’s getting paid $15/hour,
saving a space.
Another says if he doesn’t get an iPhone, „he’ll have to go streaking“
(but he may have been joking…?).
iPhone Hysteria seems ripe.
We managed to organize ourselves
into a stable line
— the Apple Store employees
are no help as of yet;
they stand at the door,
mocking us
with their insider-ness —
and things seem orderly.
And we’re all excited.«
