It's cold, and rainy. People are sitting outside in the darkness, lit solely by a few lights on tall lamposts. On their hands are black markings resembling numbers. Are these people waiting to be trekked off to a Nazi camp? No, they're camping out days in advance to purchase Sony's NextGen console offering: PS3.

I talked with a few of the people that were awake when I stopped by Wed(11/16) on my way to work. Some of the interesting statistics that most people are interested in are:

• Ages: 16-31
• 5 out of 33 were planning on actually keeping the console, and not selling it on Ebay
• One individual was being paid by his brother to sit in line and purchase the unit for him.

The following are a few pictures I snapped at the Best Buy by the Dayton mall that morning:

If you have any pictures, movies, anything from camping out yourself or from those that were camping out, please send them my way.
