He plopped himself down in front of the Fifth Avenue Apple store in New York to comb out his chest hair while waiting for press to spot him on iPhone launch day. Greg Packer who was dubbed the iLoser, is less of an iPhone cult follower and more of a compulsive line-sitter. Greg now has an iLoser blog designed to create his own cult, seeking those who would bow down to worship him. Good luck Greg, you'll have to sit in line behind the Jesus phone, the real savior.
Packer wasn't able to articulate how the iPhone worked, but he did say the experience of being first in line was like being a celebrity - "like Bono" - in a crowd. "It was like being a god," he said in a telephone interview. I knew that's what he was after...God-like status.
