At 5th Avenue in New York is an Apple Store. And right in front of it is a man waiting for the iPad to be launched tomorrow. His name is Greg Packer and not new in the ‘business’. He was also the first in line waiting for the first iPhone to arrive several years ago.
Now I was thinking, when you pre-ordered an iPad you don’t have to wait in line to be the first to get an iPad. The pre-ordered iPad will simple be delivered at your doorstep or it will be waiting for you to come and get it. No matter what, you will have an iPad tomorrow when you’ve pre-ordered it.
So this man either has not pre-ordered the iPad and really wants to be sure he’ll have one on Saturday morning, or he just wants media attention. If it’s the latter, it certainly worked. Watch the interview below:
