Make fun if you can, but I couldn't because they were part of something that I wasn't today.
APPLE STORE SAN FRANCISCO PLUS
You could not convince the last in line they weren't going to get an iPhone, or the first that it would not be worth the $500 plus contract. They were smiling, laughing, even those that had been there all night and really could have used a bath. No matter how hard I tried to make fun of the people in line, it just didn't work. Yeah, people like me, who weren't in line, not them. Surely, some of those waiting will go home disappointed. Estimates from those in line ranged from 500 to 5000 phones, but if you asked anyone who worked in store they wold tell you they had no idea how many iPhones they had, or that they had no iPhones, or both.

Not surprisingly, there were a good number of people waiting in line for someone else. Of those buying for themselves, almost everyone I spoke with was already an AT&T customer. The crowd itself was what you might expect at an Apple Store, mostly white, lots of black t-shirts, not too many goatees though, and only a smattering of berets. Whether it's a gay pride parade, or an anti-war, anti-Bush, anti-whatever protest, somebody always shows up in costumes. Right after the initial group of tents came the typical San Franciscans. The guy standing on the left was just a nerd. The guy sitting in the back wore some kind of t-shirt about a geek ghetto squad. One can only hope no scrawny employee tries to enforce the "no shirt, no shoes, no service" policy. Six counties in the are declared 'shelter in place' mandates until April 7th. The guy sitting in front has tattoos all over his chest and arms, and he could probably crush my head in his hands like a beer can. Apple Stores in the San Francisco Bay Area will stay closed longer than most. The Apple Store app is essential for anyone visiting an Apple Store.Further Reading iPhone in depth: The Ars reviewThe first people in line showed up at 10:00 AM yesterday. And while you’re shopping in-store, pull up the Apple Store app and scan accessories – these small items are billed to your Apple account and you can walk out the door without even waiting for checkout.

The Apple Store app is the key to making your Apple Store experience quick and pleasant. Although these can be helpful, you can bypass the process by using the Apple Store app on your iPhone or iPad. You can make an appointment at the Apple web site, but that sometimes requires answering a number of preliminary troubleshooting questions and suggested solutions. Make an appointment and a staff member will be ready and waiting for you when you arrive. But don’t just show up unannounced – Apple Stores are notoriously busy and you might wait for hours.
