| Script: AT&T is exclusive distributor of this, this iPhone that comes out next Friday, 29th of June at 6 PM whatever time zone you are in, in the country. Eh, it will be available from all AT&T company-owned stores. So if you are planning of getting one, make sure that the one you are thinking you’re going to is a company store, not a franchise, it will be available at Apple stores and online from Apple, not from AT&T yet The key is you are not gonna get this at the Best Buys, in the RadioShacks, in the third-party sellers. So you wanna go, at least find out where you’re gotta go first. What if I am in, I don't know, small town, Alabama, small town, Georgia, am I gonna have a little bit of a problem getting this perhaps, I mean, are there supplies getting to some of the smaller retail stores around the country? AT&T says they’re, they are going to, you know, they are gonna focus on Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, most of California , the places where iPods sell the most, but they are going to distribute this to all of their stores, they did tell us for sure they’re gonna run out in some places, now I think the only run out, way you’re gonna run out in one of these small towns is if guys like us who are figuring we're gonna get it in New York end up figuring out where to get it from. Eh, I am not entirely sure that the entire world who wants one of these, needs to get it on the first day. Gotcha They are gonna have them, there, there are reports out there that there are 3 million iPhones available for, starting from day one. Neither Apple nor AT&T would confirm that for us. Are we gonna see one of those scenes at Thursday night where folks are lining up? Wo, we’re gonna see those kind of pictures? Or we could bring those to you in the newsroom. It’s, it’s good for TV, if they are there, we’ll have them for you, I am actually considering how early I’ll get over to the Apple store over here coz I don’t want to be the only guy there but we’re told that there, there are security being hired at malls and at stores around the country. Eh because they just don’t know what’s gonna happen, I mean, who knows, this is not, this is an expensive little gismo, first of all, it’s 500 or 600 bucks depending on what you want, and you’re gonna sign a contract, so it’s, you know, it’s not just the impulse purchase, not just grabbing and paying for it .I think people like to think this one through, so you know, I, I am curious as to how these are all gonna pan out. I'm thinking PlayStation 3, (right) remember the problems that, you remember that (yep) coz, well, you talked a lot about it. This is the hype, you see, we are talking about lineup. So I bet you somebody is gonna say: better get online. There he is, minding your business, Ali Velshi great to see you. (see you, buddy, yep) notes: pan out: (idiomatic) To succeed; to proceed according to plan; to result or end up.
