Gold Rush – The return of the King

5:45pm – just as I was planning to head out to the Apple store I get the following alert:
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCE DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL... AS WELL AS DEADLY LIGHTNING AND TORRENTIAL RAIN. GET TO SAFE SHELTER NOW... INSIDE A STURDY BUILDING OR IN A VEHICLE. DO NOT SEEK SHELTER UNDER TREES. IF YOU CAN HEAR THUNDER... YOU ARE CLOSE ENOUGH TO BE STRUCK BY LIGHTNING. DRIVERS SHOULD BE ALERT FOR PONDING OF WATER AND AVOID FLOODED ROADS.
A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 800 PM EDT THURSDAY EVENING FOR NORTHERN CONNECTICUT AND MASSACHUSETTS AND SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND CENTRAL RHODE ISLAND.

You got to be kidding me!
If you really think a deadly thunderstorm storm will hold me back from getting the prize, then think again.

6:10pm got to the store (still alive) only 5 people in line (all with pre-orders or tickets). This obviously proves that you get a better treatment if you are invited to the party…

7:00pm returning home as a winner, I’m probably looking at a romantic evening where together each one is busy updating his new iPhone…

Not sure what the big excitement is all about – after all it is just a phone (and an ipod and an email device and an app platform probably the coolest gadget around…)

I have finally figured out the name “iPhone 4”, looks like you have to wait 4 hours to get an iPhone…
