Line forms outside 5th Avenue store

iPhone line Engadget brings us photos of a line that formed yesterday mysteriously. Weighing in at approximately 60 people deep, the line formed suddenly. I immediately searched for some kind of product announcement, but there was none.

Some of the people don’t know what they’re in line for (they just like being in line). Some think there’s a 3G iPhone. According to Apple reps, they’re trying to keep iPhone buyers controlled. You won’t like iPhone buyers when angry.

I’m thinking about starting a line at a local Apple store and telling people I’m in line for that mythical xMac that so many people seem in love with. Then again, it seems like a cruel way to answer the question “how do you keep an idiot in suspense?” By starting a line of course.

It seems that there is a shortage of Iphones in America. Just look at these crazy people standing in such a long line for the phone.
