Live-casting the iPhone 3G S launch

Here we are. It’s the eve of the iPhone 3G S launch, and the excitement is growing. In just a couple handfuls of hours, Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) will let loose the iPhone 3G S on the US. Come tomorrow morning (June 19), Apple stores across the country will open their doors, applaud the die-hard fans waiting in line, and proceed to dole out Cupertino’s latest smartphone hotness to anyone with the right number of greenbacks.
So, to continue our tradition of camping out for an iPhone bringing you live coverage of iPhone launch-day crowds, IntoMobile will be broadcasting live from the Santa Monica Third Street Promenade Apple Store in beautiful Southern California.
With a little luck, you’ll get a first-hand look at what Apple fans look like in their natural habitat (the Apple store, of course), and you might even get to chat with the IntoMobile team! The feed will go live shortly, so make sure to keep checking IntoMobile.

Okay, we’re live! Hop in the chat room and let us know what’s on your mind.

Sorry guys, technical difficulties. We’re back. Stronger, faster, more sleepy!
Consolation prize - you see that fancy schmancy IntoMobile t-shirt that Will is rockin’? Well we’re giving away a couple IntoMobile shirts as consolation prizes. It’s no iPhone 3G S, but they sure are darn comfortable tees!
Remember: We’ll be announcing the third and final winner in our iPhone 3G S giveaway at midnight tonight! Make sure to enter in time!



How’s the weather there?
