Happy iPhone Day
Via Boing Boing and The Unofficial Apple Weblog:
Johnny Vulkan of NYC ad agency Anomaly is first in line at the Apple Store SoHo, and has special plans for his iPhone. Instead of coveting his precious new toy like the rest of us, his iPhone will go right up on eBay where all proceeds from its sale will go to AIDS charity Keep a Child Alive. If game console launches like that of the Wii and PS3 are any indication, early iPhone sellers on eBay stand to make a killing, and it’s nice to see that some of that money will be going to an organization working to stop a nasty virus from doing the same.
Keep a Child Alive has also sold sponsorships on some of the people standing in the line with Johnny. You can read more about how others are using the iPhone mania for good.
I can’t wait to see how much they get for the phone. And I hope Andrew stays away from eBay for the next little while.
