Some die-hard techies in Washington camped outside of AT&T stores, hoping to get first dibs on Apple's new iPhone, which goes on sale Friday at 6 p.m. Several local TV stations ran stories on their morning news about the frenzy. At the AT&T store in Chevy Chase, some people had been in line since midnight.
"We have phones here, we don't discuss quantities of phones at our locations," AT&T Sales Manager Colin Martin told NBC 4. Some VIPs, like lawmakers and professional athletes, tried to get early access to the iPhones but they were told to get in line like everyone else.
Here's coverage from NBC 4 and Fox 5 News.
