- jun2san, on 10/11/2007, -39/+404I think I have June 29th planned out:
4am: Camp out in front of Cingular Store.
9am: Purchase iPhone
10am: Call into work sick
11am: Record myself opening the box
12pm: Transfer mp3s onto iPhone
9pm: Go to local bar and use the phone in front of a hot chick
9:30pm: Get some ass
Yep, all in all, it should be a pretty good day. - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -23/+259i'm typing this comment on my laptop... in my tent... outside the apple store.

- mrfreeziexp, on 10/11/2007, -22/+85I wish I could induce a coma for 25 days so I won't have to feel the waiting...
- tizz66, on 10/11/2007, -8/+55jun2san: If by 'get some ass' you mean 'attract some geeks who'll do anything to touch my phone', I think it'll be a good day for you :p I have a feeling the 'hot chick' from 9pm won't really care about your new phone :D

Maybe if you bought an iPhone, you could look up directions to both an anger management class and a spelling tutor. - gllopc, on 10/11/2007, -0/+37pacificcatch.com...
They don't have calamari on the menu!

You so burned them dude. - tbeseda, on 10/11/2007, -2/+37"So you're watching Pirates of the Caribbean..."
"Mmmm, calamari..."
LOL. - JayTee44, on 10/11/2007, -4/+38In related news, John Dvorak is insisting that the whole apple iphone story is a giant hoax and no one will buy them anyway.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -32/+59...and I can't wait!

- rosefu, on 10/11/2007, -1/+24Are women really that shallow nowadays that they will sleep with any guy that has the latest piece of technology? Do I still even belong to this gender?
On second thought, why does this even surprise me? - tbeseda, on 10/11/2007, -9/+32So, you're definitely gonna buy one then?
Sweet! Me, too. - Quix, on 10/11/2007, -3/+25neiltc13 = sour grapes because he owns lots of PALM stock

- DaffyDuck, on 10/11/2007, -2/+20"Maybe if you bought an iPhone, you could look up directions to both an anger management class and a spelling tutor."
And perhaps the directions to Barnes&Noble so he can buy the "Humor for Dummies" book. - cynic573, on 10/11/2007, -6/+23Am I the only person that's really not that excited because I both:
- Already own a decent cell phone
- Already own a video iPod

"And how!" - crazybrit, on 10/11/2007, -3/+18Holy *****, the "Calamari" ad is amazing.

You missed 10pm: Wonder If I can actually afford iPhone AND some ass. - crazybrit, on 10/11/2007, -0/+11cool. I still want a ***** Core 2 duo mini so I can buy a Mac already.
- mobilehavoc, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12@jun2san,
Thinking that flashing an iPhone will get you ass...priceless. - ronmexico, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12Funny neiktc13, you accuse people of spam yet you've posted identical comments on multiple stories.
- kernyboy, on 10/11/2007, -8/+18why are you knocking it? if people want the iPhone..let it be. stop hating because you cant afford one.
- vh1`, on 10/11/2007, -0/+10granted it's nothing confirmed. but how would it know where the closest seafood shop would be
- leonwehttam, on 10/11/2007, -20/+29its a ***** IPOD, why do you need internet radio!?!
- jrseney, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10Yeh, firefox crashed 4 times trying to watch the ads... I just downloaded the latest quicktime about 2 weeks ago... stupid apple and stupid quicktime.
- Svenson, on 10/11/2007, -2/+11Woo Hoo! Now I know when I can start waiting for the price to drop.
- crazybrit, on 10/11/2007, -3/+11It's 4:3, also.
- TheSack, on 10/11/2007, -2/+10"11am: Record myself opening the box"
Why do people photograph/record themselves opening up new gadgets?
Is it like pr0n to you? - TheSalmonThief, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7I dunno, I was definitely thinking about calamari while watching Dead Man's Chest.
- proghead, on 10/11/2007, -5/+12It's Tuesday! Did you bring your coat?
- fuzzmeister, on 10/11/2007, -4/+11Yes, it's all a conspiracy by the evil neogadgetists trying to destroy America.
Get a life. - jazzviolin, on 10/11/2007, -8/+15Something to keep in mind. I'm guessing, but I'll bet I'm pretty damn close.
$599 - 8 gb iPhone (with 8.75 sales = $651.40)
Monthly phone bill for the next two years $130 a month
$60 - voice plan
$60 - unlimited data
$10 - "fees" and taxes
$3,771.40 -- That's $157 a month. No wonder Apple stock has gone up over 40% in the last 6 months. - ChromaVita, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7because both stories had 60 diggs, until you buried it?
- NewChar, on 10/11/2007, -5/+12I wouldn't go that far. I mean, it does fit in your pocket.
- Anonymous99, on 10/11/2007, -4/+11mrfreeziexp,
That reminds me of a certain Southpark episode about the Wii.... - locnguyen, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8wah wah wah! it's only digg, don't get so butt hurt
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8noticed something strange in the ad. in the calamari ad, the date on the calendar in the widget is "sunday the 3rd". That's today, and there hasn't been another sunday the 3rd since december 3rd. So either they made this ad 6 months ago, or they made the ad planning on releasing it today and changed the icon to reflect it for some odd reason, or they actually made the ad at 9:42 this morning (the time on the phone) and sent it to the stations for airing today...
while the last option seems implausible, it makes sense that they wouldn't want to release the ads to tv stations earlier than the date of airing, or even CREATE an ad that contained the release date until they were ready to air it, to keep it a secret.
oh well, thought it was an interesting tidbit. - j10s, on 10/11/2007, -4/+10typo *every guy in town
- theVariable, on 10/11/2007, -3/+9You guys are digging down comedy gold from Don Hertzfeldt: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSb-nV8l2QY
- nogami, on 10/11/2007, -9/+15I think it's a nice device with a good user interface, but my PocketPC can do a lot more (but with a worse UI).
I won't be buying one. - Ireland, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7I've no doubt there's a whole lot of people who saw that ad tonight, who said "what's Calamari?"
Squid!!? Did someone else say yuck!?
"Did someone say Pizza?" Would probably have been more apt.
On a side note, John Gruber has a great take on the ads:
"Three iPhone commercials from Apple, which began airing on TV tonight. Release date: June 29. These are great ads – music, photos, video, flick-to-scroll, Google Maps integration, and, of course, answering and initiating phone calls. It all looks simple, obvious, and very fun. No other cell phone is advertised by showing off the user interface." - theVariable, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6digg me down
