LOL this is getting ridiculous. Lining up at 11pm and 2am 2 weeks after launch? Even worse for the people who leave empty-handed hahah.

Guess there's just too much of a gotta have it now mentality these days... line ups for games, lineups for phones.

I dunno why most of you guys are lining up. iPhone 4 can be unlocked, and there are the occasional people selling on craigslist for 750-800 for 16gb. They retail 740ish after tax anyways. All that time waiting in line when you could of been working a full day shift or however amount of time you waited in line, IF people worked those days, they could of just paid the marked up price of the phones.

I personally waited, and lurked craigslist and picked up a fido locked one for 750, unlocked it and all set

^cos I'm 3 months into my new contract after I got my x10 in april and getting it for $159 with rogers is a much better deal than $750

Software unlocked is never as good as factory unlocked. Factory unlock also have a higher resale value so some people would rather wait in line and pay $740 for a factory unlocked version then pay $750 for a Fido locked version. The person you bought the phone from probably went back and got themselves a factory unlocked version and made $11

understandable, value wise you'd get more for "true" unlocked ones. But i really don't see any difference between factory unlocked and software unlocked. Yeah maybe the guy did make 11$...but he had to wait in line a few hours...thats a probably a couple dollar an hour. All that work for that little? when he could of just worked...even mcdonalds would of gotten you wAAAYYYYY more

Opps, actually he made more then that, at least $570 since he got it under contract. But probably spent it all on an unlocked version

When you buy it of craigslist, there is a information problem. What if your $700 phones breaks after 1 week of use? Then you are pretty much SOL.
