Didn't do that at either of the two Apple stores I'm aware of (there are 5 in my area), or the three AT&T stores my friends went to.
> – You overheard a conversation in another company? Good ears. Extra credit for "she".
Grownup companies sometimes do things together, not every other company is your competitor.
> – "Hey neighbour! I couldn't help noticing you aren't mowing your lawn with a phone?!" "The screen was too tiny neighbourino!"
My neighborhood has a very active community message board and I know many of the member personally from neighborhood events.

Here are the exact quotes
Neighbor 1: "I'm not a fan. Hate what they did to ical. The new icons look like they are for small children (that i can get over). And the bright white is obnoxious. What the hell did they do to safari?? I'm sad ... But im sure i will eventually get used to it. "
Neighbor 2: "I'm not "upgrading" yet. Hate the font."
Neighbor 1: "Everything is bright white and hard for me read...feeling old."
Neighbor 3: "So far I actually like it. The calendar took me a minute to get used to as well. At first I didn't like it until I realized you get a 5 day shot when you turn it on its side. I can't figure out how to do a list view yet - is there one?"
Neighbor 1: "I have light sensitivity issues (Astigmatism in both eyes - and I also have cataracts - God I sound old!) so the bright white is just harsh for me and not having huge contrasting colors is also hard on my eyes. Yep I agree the one swipe to have controls is nice and I do like what they did with the photos."
Neighbor 4: "Steve Jobs is probably rolling over in his grave right now..."
Neighbor 5: "I downloaded on my iPhone the other night, not a fan. But I downloaded on my iPad earlier today, and I don't mind it at all. But it is way too bright."
Neighbor 1: "Thank you for saying its too bright ... I was beginning to wonder if it was me."
> – 'Hey Wifey, wanna line up in this 2 hour queue? Dum, de dum [two hours in the queue pass]. Oh hey, we're at the front of the queue! Nah this sucks. Wanna go buy some Samsung Galaxies? YES!'
Talked to him in person (he's next door). And that was pretty much the conversation.
> – Your astro-turfing obviously disinterests you, as does your job and it shows dude :[ Quit your job.
What does my job have to do with this?
