Found Footage: Waiting in line for an iPhone 3G
Our good friends over at Engadget posted an exclusive interview from the line that is forming outside of the 5th Avenue Apple Store. In the video, they interview the first three people in line and ask them what they're doing. According to Daniel, the group leader, they are trying to "break a world record for most time spent waiting in line to buy something."

People waited in line for over six months to buy tickets when Star Wars Episode I debuted. These dorks are off by a factor of 30.

If they are actually protestors, that would actually be more interesting.
that guy must not have a girlfriend.

They're an environmental activist group trying to build attention for things like local, organically grown food, as well as a lofty goal of getting the next president's attention.
