There are thousands of people hired by grey marketeers ringing every Apple Store in New York and probably in most major cities. They made up at least 98% of the 5 block long line around the Apple Store Soho this afternoon. This is unlikely to let up until the Chinese government permits the iPhone 6 to be sold in China, which may not happen for months to come. At the very least, make a reservation.
Not your typical early adopters
