iPhone for Africa
Not everyone is camping out just for an iPhone. Alicia Keys, Iman, Liv Tyler and Jessica Alba are lining up to raise awareness about AIDS in Africa as well as raise funds by selling ad space on their t-shirts.
"We're doing this for Keep a Child Alive which is a charity that provides drugs for children in Africa."
The iPhone is all about keeping connected with people and it's important at times like this to remember that we are all in fact connected to everybody, and it would be nice to remember people less fortunate than ourselves. So we're lining up for the next three day. We have about 80 volunteers so far and actually people on the street are coming by and volunteering to sit in as well. We are taking sponsors on our t-shirts; it's a minimum bid of $500."
