Ok, well I think that this is really going over the top and i’d be surprised if even the most hardcore diehard Apple fanboy did this. Greg Packer has decided he desperately want’s one of these much talked about iPads and has already begun queuing outside Apple’s flagship store in New York for the devices release on Saturday.
Of course he is first in line, and at the moment the only one, but this is nothing new to Greg. He was also the first in line for the iPhone when it was released last year as well! I don’t think we’re expecting lines like we get with the iPhone but you never know. Greg is playing it safe and wants to make sure he is getting the very first iPad and obviously can’t wait for a pre order to arrive in the mail.
Check out a brief video captured on the streets (thanks, Zoltan Kaprinay) to see what he had to say for himself. I can assure you I won’t be rushing out to buy an iPad whenever it’s released over here anyway.
And here is some of the transcript from his little interview
Question: “So, nobody took your place?”
Packer: “No, nobody… nobody.”
Question: “So, you are the first one?”
Packer: “So far, yep yep!”
Question: “So you’re going to be the first one to buy one, also?”
Packer: “Yep, yep!”
Question: “Do you have any number?”
Packer: “Huh?! Yes, yes. Well, first come, first serve! They don’t give you a number, you queue up for a number.”
Question: “Do you have something in your bag, to eat or drink?”
Packer: “Just mainly a change of clothes. Nothing to eat, nothing to drink.”
Question: “Why do you want [the iPad] so desperately?”
Packer: “Because… it’s like a mini laptop! I mean, you just… you know, click it on, just like you click the iPhone on. And you don’t have to open it up, and you know, go through, you know, go through everything. “
Question: “So, you need to have it?”
Packer: “Yes! “
