Apple’s iPhone hits the east coast

And in the mobile world today, Steve Job’s hobby – the iPhone – has just hit North America‘s east coast today, at a very prompt 6 p.m. launch as announced by the Cupertino-based company. People have lined up on Apple’s retail outlets in New Jersey, Florida, New York, and Philadelphia, among some.
 
And while the west coast nears its launch window, Apple stores in California and Connecticut have already been prepping up for their share of the iPhone purchase craze. There are claims of people whisking past potential iPhone customers lined up, teasing folk with their iPhone.
