Hello Everyone, Today, Friday, November 24, 2017 is/was Black Friday, here in the US. This is the busiest shopping day of the year, for us.
As it turned out, I went to two very large shopping centers today, each having an Apple Store. At both locations, I was stunned to see so, so many people in lines, outside the stores, waiting to buy new iPhones. There were lines for other devices, also but the iPhone lines were definitely the longest. As I passed by the lines, I decided to query some of the people to see which phone they were going to purchase. It was strange, I only had to walk up to one or two people before everyone else began volunteering their choices. Now that I think about it, these stores were near Hollywood and, no doubt, some of the people thought we were preparing for some kind of a camera shoot or something. Everyone in these areas of town wants to be, "discovered," as it were. (smile). Now that I think about it, the last time I waited in line to purchase an iPhone, some years back, I was interviewed by a local news crew so, such things can and do happen here. (smile). But I digress. The reason I am posting this little vignette is to express my surprise at how many people were choosing to buy iPhone 7 and 7 Plus models. I probably spoke to about 150 people, both locations included, and I'd estimate that at least one-third of them were heading to iPhone 7th heaven. The iPHone 7 series is alive and well with Apple orchards, everywhere. (smile) Mark -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
