What a shocker :P

On a side note, I'm annoyed there's nothing in Melbourne. The Optus store that's having the midnight opening in Sydney isn't even a company store.

C'mon Melbourne Optus resellers. Do something for us on the right side of the VIC/NSW border

(and I mean Melbourne :P)

This has been discussed elsewhere. Optus as a company only actually owns 3 stores. One in Brisbane, one in Sydney (North Sydney) and one in Melbourne (300 Collins Street). All other Optus World stores are franchised.

My local Optus said several customers have stated they will be camping on the door step thursday night. As the Optus store is external from the Glen shopping center.
