Shoppers lined up hours in advance to get their hands on spankin’ new iPhones today. But the sought-after gold iPhone 5s is in short supply and the shipping date has already been pushed back to October.
Seeing tweets, pics, etc of iPhone lines. Gold iphone sold out on site. This is going to be a monster opening weekend me thinks.

I'd say it was worth it waking up at 3 because I bought the gold iPhone before it sold out
