So, I'm sitting at the Rogers in newmarket and there's about 12 people here and more keep coming. The line is unorganized (people have just been sitting in a sort of circle) but we've established that I'm number 8 and that's all that matters.

It's awkwardly quiet. Some people stayed overnight.

More updates later.

(To the people who are living vicariously through me)

I just woke up and am sitting on the couch drinking a cappuccino and hoping that *things* get *moving* soon, if you want to live vicariously through me.

goo luck mate. Hope they have the phone you want (white/black/16GB or whatever)

Hey guys.

There's about 17 people here now. The employees havn't arrived yet.

The b***h in the front of the line is making it known that she is in fact in the front of the line.

We are now giving eachother numbers to avoid confusion (because people don't seem to understand the concept of a line)

Good look Jawknee, *something* will get moving I'm sure. But just to be sure, get down to Rogers to be rogered!

Update: there are about 25 people here now. 3 employees. They say there are more than enough for the people in line.

Don't forget to ask about the upgrades

I am just back from the Fido main store in Montreal. Forget it!!!
They have 250 iPhone in stock and they can activate 20 per hour!!!! And.... there is about 500 persons waiting in line!!!
That mean 12.5 hours!!!

In the line, someone was talking to one of his friend that was waiting at the Fido store of the Place Versail, and they have only 8 iPhone in stock!!!

So if your not a lucky one in front of the line, forget it. It will be sold out before the end of the day....

Seams that I will have to wait again to get one....

Just got to work, and saw a few lines on my way:

Toronto Life Rogers store had a line that went down Yonge, and curved onto Dundas (at 8:00am.) I had an aerial view from my apt. so it looks like there may have been around 100+ people in line.

Eaton Center Fido store had ~25 people in line. I chatted with the guys at the front, and they said they were told the store had 100 iphones. I'm not sure how quickly that line is going to fill up, but I would place my bets on the fido store if you're planning to try to grab a phone this morning in downtown Toronto.

Meh. I can't be bothered, I have to work. I am going to wait a few weeks - see how it pans out.
