Man To Line Up Over A Month Early For The iPhone 5 (But Mostly For Attention)

The store he's camping in front ofEach time a new iPhone is set to hit the shelves, I get my pre-order in nice and early. Waiting in line is for chumps, right?Then Launch Day Eve rolls around, and I end up carting myself off to the Valley Fair Apple Store and camping out for 14+ hours anyway. Not for the product, mind you " it's more so to surround myself with eccentric people and see what the hardcore early adopter/Apple fanbase looks like. You know, for science or something. Friends and family call me crazy. ("You're going to sleep in a mall?!" they'll say. "For a whole night?!" as if Valley Fair transforms from a posh shopping mall to an in-door version of the streets of Compton as soon as the sun goes down. )I've got nothing on this guy, though. He'll be camping out for the iPhone 5 (which, by the way, hasn't actually been announced yet) for over a month, and has turned his would-be time-wasting into an entrepreneurial experiment of sorts.
