Today was the 3G iphone launch day a day I'll never forget. The Roller-coaster ride of a day was filled with so many up and down emotions, worries, nerves, fear excitement adrenaline it was almost unbearable. I started the day early waking after 3 hours sleep getting up at 4.30 to get the half 5 train to chester. I got there at 6 finding a Que. of 9 people. I started talking to some really sound people even swapped numbers with this guy who lives close by he's into all the same kinda apple stuff as me. The o2 staff at half 7 told us they only had 8 16GB iphones witch made me the 9th person who wanted one so I had no chance in getting one. Fortunately there's another o2 store that opens at 9 in an indoor precinct and they 4 16GBs. So I waited by one of the 4 entrances to get in. hoping I'd be first there. I met this other guy while waiting he was probably 40 and came along with his pregnant wife. Once the shutters were up at 8 I desperately ran to be first in line but found a family of 4 waiting there after 3 16GBs. I knew I'd be ok aslong as they really had 4 in stock. The guys said they did so I was more relaxed but still scared. Then I woman came round who was at the over que with 4 kids she came at 6am too, she thanked me for leaving the que as someone had to drop out and she ended up getting the 16GB she was after, I was ok about it knowing Id get one too but did feel a little gutted. Then o2 had us sigh up manually I asked for 16GB but once they got us in the store they told me they infact only had 3 of the 16GB's! I was totally gutted and disappointed words to describe how i felt are hard to find. I asked to keep back an 8GB while I made up my mind and just as I was about to leave to reserve one for tomorrow from the Carphone warehouse the guy said u don't want to do that and pulled out a 16GB! I was over joyed, I couldn't believe after such a let down I was back on a high. After signing up for it again ( they lost the paper work, i really didn't mind) I had to wait for there upgrade systems to come back online so I sat watching chuck on my ipod and drinking a huge mug of hot chocolate at the costa coffee just opposite. About half an hour later I went back in to find the upgrade system working again.

It was such a mad unforgettable day with an amazing atmosphere, Im really glad I went today for the launch otherwise I'd have missed out on such a great experience of emotions. And to all those who waited in line early I hope you got the size you wanted.
