Default iPhone 5s Launch - Anyone waiting in line?

Was just wondering if any of the NELOC guys are waiting in line for the new iPhone 5s? If so, which store?

I'm planning on waiting in line, probably going at around 2 am.

LOL, I've got the iPhone 5 but my old man still has the 3Gs. So I'm gonna give him my iPhone 5, and use his upgrade for a 5s.

I've got no classes on Friday, so I said what the hell, might as well experience it one time. Likely won't have a better opportunity to wait in line for a Apple product launch again.

Just thought I'd update this thread, lol. Went to the AT&T store at midnight was the first one there, people started coming about 20 minutes later. It was a cool experience, literally cool. Should have took a jacket. Bought (2) iPhone 5s and sold one right on the spot for $700. So I made a profit, and got the phone I wanted.

IMO, It's a great looking phone, too bad it feels incredibly cheap when you hold it, just like the Galaxy phones.

It's a spec beast for sure. blows every other android phone on the market out of the water. but i have to agree with u. the plasticy feel of the korean phones kinda sucks... but i found this nice aluminum snap on back plate case to go along nicely with it. black brush aluminum!

so far i've been pleased with it. some of the software is kinda wonky and a lot of bloatware was installed on it haha.

I saw some pictures of people waiting on lines at Apple stores around North Jersey. I swear the line gets longer and longer with every release. I'm still content with my iPhone 5 and don't see a need to upgrade.
