******** Lunatics
Sounds like the ******** lunatics got one but those who
are definitely not ******** lunatics did not. The difference
is clear and obvious. Wing-nuts camp out. Sanity comes 4
hours into the release day with a camera and low
expectations.

The verdict? It's a massive failure. It usually is a failure
when lunatics get the things that reasonable people want.
While passing judgement on ******** lunatics, reasonable
people might recall the last iPhone release. Yes, there
actually is a precedent for this. The lineups were the same,
the inconveniences of waiting happened then as well. Then
a few days later, it was a piece of cake to get an iPhone.

There is another tier of even more reasonable people, who
took this into account and decided that iPhone release was
not going to be the right time to buy if one valued one's
time. Fortunately, that even more reasonable tier of people
is less inclined to pass judgement to quickly or harshly.
