Chaos at Camp-out Line in NYC

FoxNews is reporting that outside of a Sony store in New York City, there are over 400 people in line for 200 systems, some of them entering the line as early as Monday. To make matters worse, someone who was the 260th in line is now in the top 40, due to the old trick of cutting in line. The store did not give tickets corresponding to place in line. As if this weren't chaotic enough, they're expecting heavy storms and cold temperatures. Tarps are already prepared. Needless to say, there will be some very unhappy, wet, cold customers who will go home without a system.

Maybe we can get site owner Tom to hop in his car and report on this in person? Don't count on it. More updates as launch approaches and occurs.
