Look at the never ending queue during the launch for the iPhone 5! (Video)
All equipped with their Apple products or gadgets while waiting for the launch and waiting for the iPhone 5 to be landed in their hand!
Don’t worry about your phone running low batt, there’s plenty of charging station here prepared specially for you while waiting for the launch! #maxis5
Fear not! There’s 45 payment counters and 9 collection counters by alphabetical order! Even thought there’s so many counters and part time workers, the process still very slow as there’s a lot of manual input need to key into the system I believe? Some have to wait at least 3-5 hours to get their phone!
All waiting for the clock to strike 00:00:00 to grab their iPhone 5!
