Top 10 Pervasive Tech Myths That Are Only Wasting Your Time newVideoPlayer("FirstTextiPhone_gawker.flv", 475, 376); OK, it’s just Day 1. Whether I turn out to be a Mossberg (typing is “a nonissue”) or a Levy (“Maybe I’m a spaz”) remains to be seen, but on my very first outing it took me a while just to type a simple text message. (1 down, 199 text messages to go!) Notice, though, that the system did correct my fumbly entries… twice. – Video by Nick McGlynn
The gates finally opened and the ravenous masses spilled inside. Pacman was up first, of course, and the rest followed in his wake. Finally, after days of waiting, those who left their paying jobs will finally be able to spend a ton of money and walk out with their brand new iPhones. Hope Greg’s card went through!
newVideoPlayer("UNBOXING_gawker.flv", 475, 376); We assume you tuned in at 6:15pm EST and caught us live—without sound. (Sorry gang, but this was beta to the max.) In case you didn’t, though, you can watch the camcorder version, with a rockin’ soundtrack.
Reader.mac.com is live now. This is a capture of what you get when you try to access the reader.mac.com address directly from an iPhone.

newVideoPlayer("finaltshirts_gawker.flv", 475, 376);In case it wasn’t clear how long the SF iPhone line is, check out this video where we got them to do the wave. How? By giving them T-Shirts. Stick around for the very end. You know why.
We’re getting pumped up, since it’s almost our turn to get in.

Update: The stream’s up, but there’s no audio.
Stick around kiddies, because we’ve got a live unboxing of the iPhone here coming up. This is super, super beta stuff, so it may be kinda glitchy, but we’ve got our best trained monkeys on the job.
Live unboxing, here, on Gizmodo. iPhone. Be here.

newVideoPlayer("closingtimesf_gawker.flv", 475, 376);What are these people angry at? No, it isn’t not being able to get an iPhone, it’s not being able to get into the Apple store when they closed it down at 2PM to prepare for the 6PM launch. Apparently either some people’s watches were a little off, or Apple closed the store down a little early, but they’re pissed at not being able to get into the store. That’s why we love SF—everyone always has things in perspective.
newVideoPlayer("itshirt_gawker.flv", 475, 376);We thought it was a little strange that the first person in the AT&T iPhone line didn’t know anything about the iPhone, but we’re glad to hear that it’s not widespread. You see, the people who camped at an Apple store-proper? They know about the iPhone. See as they nail just about all the questions we throw at them and win a T-Shirt in the process.
