Apple Store in Beijing Underestimates the Popularity of Its iPhone 4S

It has often been said that "a picture is worth a thousands words." Consequently, I thought our readers would enjoy the huge crowd assembled outside the Apple Store in Beijing in the attached http://www.newsday.com link.

Clearly, "queue up" means many different things in different cultures, as depicted in the graphic photo accompanying the Newsday piece. Unfortunately, the Apple Store had to be closed and the sale canceled when police could not ensure the safety of iPhone shoppers waiting in the cold to purchase a 4S.
