We all know that Apple's new iPhone 3G will be released on July 11 in the US (and other 22 global markets), so there are about six days left until then. Well, six days don't seem to be enough for some US iPhone fans, as the line in front of Apple's Store in New York has already begun to take shape.

According to GearDiary, there are at least ten people in front of the Cube from Apple's New York flagship store. They have tents, sleeping bags, food and - the shocking part - there's a couple among them who came with their six-month old daughter. The couple says the baby will "probably" not wait all the time in the line. But that doesn't change the fact that a baby as young as six months should not be involved in such an action.

Apparently, this early group wants to set a world record. On their website, suggestively named Waiting for Apples, they have self-titled themselves "The Who Farmers", saying the record should be for the "longest time waiting in line to buy something". Well, as they will have to stay in front of Apple's Cube until July 11, 8 AM local time, when all the US Apple and AT&T stores start selling iPhone 3Gs, they do have some good chances to set a record.

Reading more about the mentioned website, I've found that these iPhone 3G fans say that, during the in-line wait, they will eat "local healthy food", and "especially Apples". Furthermore, they will talk to people who pass by about "local organic farming", since this is "a critical element to sustainable healthy living, food security, youth education, and climate change mitigation".

Well, all this is definitely weird, and the fact that it revolves around Apple's new iPhone will surely bring more publicity for the Cupertino-based company (as if necessary).
