Apple Employees point of view on the iPhone 4 Launch

There is a reason that Apple followers are sometimes seen as crazy- With the launch of the new iPhone 4, you can already expect people to go ballistic over the device. Lucky for me, I have 3 friends that work at the Apple store near me. Ours is located inside a mall which means our security didn’t allow people to line up until 5am the morning of the launch.
