Here are some of my updates from twitter (@daveizzle):

5:08am: Inside the mall! 2 lines: 1 for the Verizon Store & 1 for the Apple Store. I am literally 1st in the Apple Store line!!

5:19am: Talking to the cops here and they said they were told to expect about a thousand people here today!

5:27am: So far it's still just me in the Apple Store line. 4 people are over in the line for the Verizon Wireless store.

5:31am: At the AT&T launch last June of the iPhone 4 when I was here at 5am, there were at least 200 people - at 5am. I ended up waiting 8 hours.

5:35am: I know this ain't no iPhone 5 but I expected more than 5 people here 1.5 hours prior to opening given the "record breaking VZW preorders"

5:39am: We'll see what this looks like at 7am but I'm thinking there may not be such a rush of people switching to VZW from AT&T as was hyped.

5:40am: Update: I have company at last here in Apple's line - 1 dude who came prepared with a chair & stuff. Lol

5:41am: The cops keep joking with each other about the lack of people here - there are literally more cops here than buyers!

I went to the Verizon store in Webster NY and the manager there, Chris, was excellent. I was in and out in no time. Could not of asked for better service. Was #2 in line. There were about 60 people there.

 

[psyko825#IM]

My experience in line was great. Walked up at 850 and there was no one in line. In and out in 20 minutes. Rep said there were only 2 people in line at 7 am and they had only sold maybe 12 iPhones

Verizon iPhone Launches to Short Lines, Cold Temperatures - Mac Rumors

that and it is not like the phone is a new model. so a lot of people already have the iphone4

 

[mikesa_tx]

Where are the pictures!? LOL

 

[MBGIRL]

No line!

I live about 90 miles north of Phoenix in a smallish town. The Best Buy was the ONLY store to actually carry the iPHONE and they were opening at 7:00 am to accomodate the rush. I got there at 8:15 and I was the FIRST and ONLY person to be there for the iPhone the whole 45 mins. I was there! I guess I shouldn't have rushed.
