iPhone 3G Sydney queues status update (5am)
It’s 5.00am and here’s your iPhone 3G traffic report from Sydney. Things are still backed up at Optus Hunter St, though if you give it another 45 minutes (and you like white) you could get a clear run. Further up George St things are starting to pick up around T[life], with more than 20 now waiting on approach and a steady trickle joining them in anticipation of 6.00am opening. Vodafone is looking like very clear sailing at all locations, while Apple Store has more than 30 awaiting their 8.00am curtain raiser. This has been the iPhone 3G traffic report for Gizmodo AU.

Has anyone been able to test this with a 3 sim as yet?
I would have been waiting in front of Vodafone, but its too cold..
Apple has failed massively on this launch.
The was 16 units for the 250+ people at the Optus store I went to, those with deposits paid were left without a phone & no confirmed delivery date, and wanting blood.
I would love to know as well if anyone has unlocked their phones from Optus yet and tried to run it on the 3 network.!
Mine won’t activate for another couple of hours… thought activating the SIM online would be faster (grmpf). Ah, well; i have Wi-Fi to play around with it.
Is it Apple or Optus’s fault? I know at both the stores in Darwin, there were allegedly NO preorders… luckily I got mine as I arrived early enough (didn’t get teh white I wanted, had to settle for black) but there were at least 6 more people who arrived after me, who had also paid a deposit, who missed out.
I was 5th in line out in the west of syd and I was the last to get a 16gb black one, I’m happy, but im sure the 40 people out side wouldn’t of been!
My friend is queuing outside Apple Store Sydney now. Line goes around the block.
Only 50 16gb White iPhones left at Sydney Apple Store
