And then there was 3G

James was one of the brave souls that waited in line for three hours today at this perfectly wonderful store in the Domain. What came with that longterm waiting was...

A bunch of new friends.(the guy in the green was one too) And naturally the coolest phone one could ever imagine. I was lucky enough to only have to show up right at the end of the waiting and then while James did more of the finishing up work I took the kids outside to run around and...
Listen to some live music that they had going on in the courtyard...
and watch Gwen play on the toys, fountain, and naturally in the dirt. After James connected us to the new network we all headed over to CPK for some yummy dinner and dessert. I have to say it was a great day for me. Not only did we get out of the house, and eat out, but we also added some really fun gadgets to our collection. What will our friends at apple treat us to next?

I'm not sure we can hang out anymore. I won't be cool enough since I don't have a great new phone like you guys! I'm glad you got wait in line with some good people and make some new friends. And I'm also glad you got to get new phones. What a great day!

That is so exciting. I saw a story about people waiting in line for the new phone on the news and didn't realize you were in the crowd. I hope your dinner at CPK was good...did you see RuthAnn? What a great day.

I guess this is you and James's version of camping out for tickets to Star Wars, you gadget junkies you! Maybe next time you can dress up, he he. But wow, 3 hours would have killed us. I think that counts for like 5 days of exercise. It looks like you kind of made friends with the other people in line, enough to smile for a picture at least. Might as well listen to a life story or two...What an exciting day to add some new technology to the family. If Harry crawled for a mere cell phone, look out what he'd do for one of these!! :) Can't wait to see it in person, you'll have to show me all the tricks.

Isn't it fun to make friends with people who have the same interests as you! Now you don't have to hang out with the low-life's who are still stuck with the same crappy phone they've had for the past 4 years that doesn't even take pictures, sweet!

Don't talk too much about this, Taylor was pissed when he found out it was being released two months after he'd purchased his iPhone. Oh well, you win some, you loose some. Enjoy James

There's nothing like getting a new gadget you've been waiting for.
