Apple rolls out the iPhone displays
Apple and AT&T stores are starting to advertise the iPhone, promising "the wait is almost over."
The iPhone turned heads in downtown San Francisco on Friday, a week before its debut.

The first window ads for the iPhone appeared in the retail stores of both companies Friday. They're fairly simple, just a picture of the iPhone itself and reminding everyone that it's "coming June 29." AppleInsider spotted some larger ads in what appears to be a mall somewhere, but in busy downtown San Francisco, Apple and AT&T went for a more compact campaign.
Will there be more foot traffic or car traffic in front of this AT&T store next Friday?
