Therefore, waiting in line will net you the hottest product out there to sell on eBay. Apple is most assuredly aware of what the ramifications of this are... If the iPhone starts getting $1,000.00, $1,500.00, $2,000.00, etc... prices on eBay, then the news outlets are going to go crazy! More free press!
I'm not interested in switching to AT&T for any reason, but who can pass this opportunity up?"
