I woke up early (couldn't sleep — it's like Christmas, people!!!), and got to the Apple store a little after 7:30. It was worse than I feared:

Yup, the line goes around the block

The Apple person that I spoke with didn't know how long the wait was, he just said \"over an hour\". The line didn't look like it was moving terribly fast, so it could have been a lot more than that.

Both KRON4 and CNN were roving the lines:

Did I say lines? That's right, you can pick your poison:

Two lines converge

I'm going to try again later.

Update: I've checked back twice, and the line is still over a 2 hour wait. And this video from CNN shows the opening of the Chestnut St. store this morning.
