That PR bullsh1tter on Campbell Live tonight claimed that someone was already lined up in Auckland? Can anyone confirm that anything coming from that man's mouth can be believed??

chakkaradeep: A small request to whoever is on the line (already) or going to queue up - please take a snap of the queue and post it here  Geez man, if I had been more organised (and lived in Auckland), it would be a friggin' hilarious stunt to line up for 2.5 days to then NOT buy the iPhone at 12.01am. That would seriously be awesome. First person in the world to...not...buy an iPhone.

Nightline (TV3) played a clip before of a guy who is already waiting outside the Auckland store. He has a tent, a sleeping bag, but no sleeping mat. Complaining about cold Auckland streets, I think...

Sad. And it's even sadder trying to get in touch with your account manager and receiving this:  Oh really?
