ILine: First in Line at the San Francisco Apple Store

Pictured here is first-in-line Jerry, who started camping out for an iPhone at 7AM this morning. Sure, he's no Greg Packer, but we gotta give him credit since he's been planning this for the last week or so, right? Wrong. He decided on a whim to go see how bad the line was this morning and ended up starting it himself.

Now for the details: Jerry is only buying one iPhone for himself instead of the two he is allowed. Unlike Packer, he doesn't get his jollies from waiting in lines. Actually, he just really wants the phone. Despite using a G3 Powerbook, Jerry claims he's quite the gadget freak. Yes, that's right, the first guy in line for an iPhone on the west coast only has a G3. And tonight he's getting a care package with a PS2, some board games, and a few fully charged laptop batteries. So there you have it. He's Jerry, he's first in line, and he's ready for his iPhone.
