[photos] iPhone 3G insanity officially commenses. NYC lines form one week early.

Well, the insanity has officially begun! Some very eager Apple fans (10 to be exact) have formed a line outside Apple’s flagship Manhattan Store. This 1970’s inspired group is claiming appreciation for Apple’s new iPhone 3G because it allows for “independence from being tied down to office chairs in order to get your work done, by being a virtual office.” Ironically, these love-child fanatics are tied down to the hot New York City pavement while waiting in line for the new iPhone. Oh, but that’s not all they are waiting in line for. Rest assured, they definitely have some uber-urgent political issues they want to address, such as getting some petition signed by 6,000,000,000 people (that’s nearly everyone on the planet), and breaking a Guinness World Record for “longest time ever spent in a line waiting to buy something.” Whoa, dream big !!!

“We got a chance to speak with group leader Daniel on video, who let us in the gang’s desire to break the world record for waiting in line, as well as some… er, broad political ideas. We also learned that the baby probably won’t be forced to stay outside of the Apple Store all week. See it for yourself in the clip after the break!” Engadget reports.

Check out a video of the group over at Engadget’s viddler page.

Depends on where you go first. Last year certain stores (both ATT and Apple) were chaos, while others were a breeze. I think you should go to the most low profile Apple Store around you, or ATT might even be better. But, stay away from the flagships if there are any around you. Those are going to be chaos. Still though, iPhone stock wasn’t too drastically short last year.

I think these will be easily attainable.
