I know that sometimes at Niagara Falls my blackberry switches to US Roaming even when I'm still in Canada. Either that or they're just dumb and assume it'll work with Rogers... or they're really dumb and are just going to use the phone sparingly and pay the roaming charges?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jonhimslf]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 11:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</guid><description><![CDATA[i wish there was going to be a shortage and i could sell one on ebay like i did for the ps3... thats the only way i would wait in a line.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[robert.stewart2]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 11:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</guid><description><![CDATA[so...wheres the follow up, did tyler get her number?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2007 11:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</guid><description><![CDATA[This "first" business is getting old.

The iPhone is probably one of the most anticipated product of 2007, but waiting in line for the launch? Considering that there should be plenty, since not everyone is going to get one?<br><br>I just seriously think it's kind of dumb to wait in lines for that. We've all pretty much seen it, and you aren't going to impress your buds any more than they already have been. So if you want to wait, go ahead. But you kind of look stupid in the eyes of most people.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[michael]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 29th 2007 12:07AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</guid><description><![CDATA[mike, why do you think your opinion or views toward people who wait in order to secure a high demand purchase matters?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[juan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 29th 2007 6:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hopefully this spotlights these ridiculous product campers... oh... wait...

You got to figure most of these individuals are either going to be paying for two cell phones or they are going to pay a few hundred dollars to break their current cell phone contract for starters.  Secondly, most in line look young and poor.  I guess its never too early to rack up massive debt.  At least Apple and Jobs will get their money.  Myself, I think this product is overhyped and will look like a 1st generation brick in a year or two.  My phone contract is up at the end of August and I'm going to get me a helio ocean.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 29th 2007 12:41AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</guid><description><![CDATA[Why would you assume people are 'young and poor' from observing them in line?  Who would be getting into massive debt by purchasing a cell phone and paying for a service plan they probably were already paying before.  Think you need to check yourself buddy.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[nick4597]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 29th 2007 9:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</guid><description><![CDATA[1) I'm not your buddy asshole.  2) I'm not saying the iphone is going to put them into massive debt retard but if these folks have to have every fad then yes they could amass debt very easily - the credit card companies LOVE young people.  3) You're right there could be a few young millionares waiting in line but I would guess that most of these young people live paycheck to paycheck.  Maybe you should check yourself "Buddy".]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 29th 2007 10:27AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well, I must say this looks like a failure to me.  PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii all had more people in line.  There are two people in line at some AT&T store?<br><br>iGadget (err engadget I mean) has really covered this to retarded proportions.

Half the people in line would probably have to be rushed to the hospital for smoke inhalation due to diving into the store trying to rescue the iPhones.  forget about me!  Save the iPhones! *tries to crawl back into the flaming building*  The sad part is I'm 100% certain there is at least a handful of people in one of those lines willing to do just that.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[John Doe]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 29th 2007 1:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/28/iphone-madness-hit-or-miss-in-chicago/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ah, I can only imagine the horrified looks on the faces of the campers as their precious iPhones were destroyed before they could even touch them.
