iPhone fairy arrives at midnight for Optus customers, sane hours for everyone else
For those plucky enough to brave icy chills to be first in the office with iPhone bragging rights, Optus will open their Sydney George street store at midnight on Thursday. Only those who have put down a deposit can reportedly pickup the phone on Thursday night, everyone else has to wait till the next day.

Even if you haven't put down a deposit, you can come and celebrate on George Street, with Optus promising supplies of free coffee and snacks. The location is 280 George Street, corner of George and Hunter street.
