Verizon iPhone Launch: Lines Forming
The Verizon iPhone finally launches in-stores on Thursday, February 10th at 7 a.m. Since this is essentially the same iPhone that has been on the AT&T network since last year, we don't expect there to be nearly as long a line for the original launch. Still, it seems some people aren't taking any chances.
The Orlando Sentinel posts a photo of the first person in line at a Florida Verizon Wireless store.
Also, Apple and Verizon seem to be preparing for some lines:

A few random tweets indicate long lines are already forming in some locations. If you are standing in line, send photos to webmaster@macrumors.com or post in the comment thread.

Marcia Caldwell parked her chair outside the Verizon Wireless store in Winter Garden shortly after 4 p.m. Wednesday -- 15 hours before she can buy Verizon's new iPhone 4.
Caldwell is presently on an iPhone 3GS with AT&T and will be switching to Verizon to get better coverage at her home.Also, Apple and Verizon seem to be preparing for some lines:

She looks happy.
I wonder how happy she is going to look after 15 hours of sitting in that chair. :D

Or when she wakes up to find her purse gone, and she has to go home to get her spare credit card, and when she gets back the line has 8,674,983 people on it :eek:

Why wait in line when online ordering is an option?
It's always been an option (I think), but people still wait in line. Maybe it's for the experience?

Hopefully it's not a long night for her or anyone who is waiting in line tonight.
