Are you on line somewhere waiting to buy an iPhone 5? If so, I hope they have a few left when you get inside the store. According to Apple, the iPhone 5 is the fastest selling iDevice in history and they are officially out of stock for online purchases. You can order one at AT&T or Verizon or Apple.com or Radio Shack or a bunch of other places, but you’re going to wait a few weeks … maybe more. Is the iPhone 5 worth the wait? If you’re contract is up and it’s time for a new phone, the iPhone 5 is an awesome choice. But, if you’re just looking for great features, the Samsung Galaxy S III is actually a phone you should consider. It’s much less expensive and it’s awesome too. Of course, none of this matters today. Today is iPhone 5 day, and, as I always say, “If you want an iPhone, nothing else will do.”
