Went for a walk with @eJeremy at Runyon Canyon and only threw up twice! Erh, next time I'm eating before I decide to walk up a mountain. #

Way to turn yellow as soon as I get on the freeway Google maps. #

Somehow I talked down $98 jeans down to $20 by jokingly asking if I could pay $40 for them. #

Heading to the Apple Store in Manhattan Beach. Wish me luck! #

And there's a line, at least 50 people if not more. http://yfrog.com/jbskjoj #

@babyxbuffalo Near me it's people without reservations. Seems to be walk-ins like me. in reply to babyxbuffalo #

In line for an iPhone 4 in Manhattan Beach. #iphone4 #manhattanbeach #macrumors #

@mightymendoza At least 100 if not more now. #manhattanbeach #applestore in reply to mightymendoza #

Been at the Manhattan Beach Apple Store for little over an hour, the lines doubled from about 65 to 130+. #iPhone4 #

@louisbarnes No mall security turning people away thus far. Been here since midnight, lines already wrapped around Macys. #manhattanbeach in reply to louisbarnes #

Over 200+ people at Manhattan Beach Apple Store 2:22pm pst. No security or police. Mainly walk-ins. http://twitpic.com/1zh6so #

@louisbarnes A lot of people do not have reservations, a few do. Just one line with everyone. #manhattanbeach #applestore #iphone4 in reply to louisbarnes #

@babyxbuffalo Lines all the way Completely wrapped around Macys now, still growing. People slowly trickling in. #manhattanbeach #iphone4 in reply to babyxbuffalo #

At around 500+ at the Manhattan Beach Apple Store already and it's not even 5am. #manhattanbeach #applestore #iphone4 #

Wow the line is wrapped out the parking lot, parking is getting scarce as well. Easily 600+ people now. #manhattanbeach #applestore #iphone4 #

Not leaving the line to scope things out anymore, more people keep showing up I don't even want to imagine how many people are behind me. #

The only thing longer than this line is watching each second slowly tick by as it nears 7am. #iPhone4 #

@SMobsessed Not yet, about 40 people went in an hour ago maybe 8 have come out. No idea on inventory numbers or wait time. in reply to SMobsessed #

@babyxbuffalo Still not in about 50 people ahead of me was about 80-90th in line. in reply to babyxbuffalo #

@SMobsessed I'm about 50 people back right now bear the front doors to the mall. #

Things are getting bad quickly at the front of the line. They haven't let any walk in for over an hour. The crowd is getting rowdy as well. #

@SMobsessed I've been here since midnight. They have maybe let 30-40 walk-ins since 7:45am. They are giving reservations priority. in reply to SMobsessed #

@rachaelaspen No worries. They are screwing up royally here at Manhattan Beach. Never seen such a mess with Apple before. in reply to rachaelaspen #

@SMobsessed Do not have a reservation. They just let in another 10 walkins and 10 more reservations. in reply to SMobsessed #

Sorry everyone, my battery died. Holy hell I just got home from the Apple Store in Manhattan Beach. 13 hours in line. WTF? Apple Store FAIL. #

I was the 83rd person in line, they were activating walk-in's to reservations 25 to 1. It was horrible, hundreds of people are still in line #

Avoid the Manhattan Beach Apple Store like the plague, completely disorganized, way too many people showing up, and severely under staffed. #

I bought my iPhone4 and booked the hell out of there, I didn't even activate it in the store. I'll never be doing this again. #

@rachaelaspen I've been awake for over 26 hours. o_0 Despite it, I'm more fatigued then I am tired, plus I want to play with my new iPhone. in reply to rachaelaspen #

@aboutjer Yea, they totally botched it by not having two lines. Crazy really. in reply to aboutjer #

@SMobsessed My 3GS battery died sadly, I finally got my iPhone 4 around 1:30pm. I got the hell out of there as fast as I could afterwords. in reply to SMobsessed #

@aboutjer Yea, I finally got inside around 1:15ish. I was the 83rd person without a reservation in line, it was 7am to 1:15pm to get inside. in reply to aboutjer #

@SMobsessed I'm not sure if it's 50 to 1, but it is easily 20 to 1. They only seemed prepared for reservations, and then over booked. in reply to SMobsessed #

@Shawn_Leon83 It got worse after you left. If you have a reservation for today find an Apple employee but you'll still be waiting awhile. in reply to Shawn_Leon83 #

@rachaelaspen The new cameras with a flash, FaceTime video chat with other iPhone 4 users via wifi, multitasking (double click home). in reply to rachaelaspen #

Word of advice, do not handle olive oil then proceed to use an iPhone 4. #

Was able to replicate the left handed antenna issue, and I'm left handed. Strange since both Steve Jobs and Jonathan Ive's are left handed. #

Hmm fell asleep. Who owns an iPhone 4? I want to try video chat. #

Just had my first FaceTime chat, hello future. #ilovemynewiphone #

@robbystarbuck @imatriarch New Kidneythieves: http://www.kidneythieves.com/ #

New iPhone 4, new Futurama, and a new Kidneythieves album. It really is the future. Time for sleep. #

@freedominguez Are we going to be able to buy from iTunes or download digitally? The idea of purchasing a physical CD in 2010 confuses me. in reply to freedominguez #

Pandora here, Pandora there, Pandora everywhere. I love multitasking on my iPhone 4. #

I want to go out tonight but I'm just so sleepy from standing in line all yesterday. #

@rachaelaspen Hurray for FaceTime! in reply to rachaelaspen #

Spent all day in the sun at a pool party. I really need to do this more. #
