Okay, who else is guilty of falling prey to the hype about the 3G iPhone?  I don’t mean that the hype doesn’t hold some place in reality, but reports of how long some of those folks stood in the Mac line at Green Hills Mall is a little astounding.

I myself took to Hickory Hollow Mall’s AT&T store, thinking the line would be shorter & hopefully the staff prepared for the event.  Well, I was 18th in line when I arrived at 7am & by the time 10:30am rolled around, only three people left the store with a working 3G iPhone in sweaty little hands.

So, what gives?  Did good old Stevsies think we weren’t gonna make it out last Friday & to just not worry about adding a few more supportive servers to iTunes?  And, sorry to be the soapboxer this morning, why on earth wasn’t AT&T more prepared for the big day?  Did they just not get the memo?  I mean, it was like they had never seen a 3G iPhone before, never opened the box & familiarized themselves with the programs and inner workings of the phone. 

But maybe I just visited the wrong store.  What were your experiences this weekend over the 3G iPhone?
