Our own Vincent is a media whore. Deny it all you want, but the facts are stacked against you man. Just look at this picture that’s plastered on USA Today and MSNBC. Don’t forget the one that the New York Times took (they’ve since put up another one). Don’t you think that is just a little bit greedy? Some people don’t even get a single picture in their local paper, and you’re in three major publications. Face it, you’re a media whore.
Video clip of Vincent leaving the Apple store with his new iPhones, captured by MoneyWatch (CBS News) after the jump.

Sorry about that, he’s just been trying to convince us that he’s not. He enjoys the attention, but really he’s just happy to finally have his hands on an iPhone. If you’re not already sick of seeing his face everywhere check out this video on iVillage.
So far, those are the only places that we’ve seen his ugly mug show up. Oh, I did forget to mention that he’s been on CNBC, and Bloomberg Live interviewed him as he was coming out of the store.
He deservers it!
You guys have put alot of work into keeping us updated, thanks a bunch!!
Im sitting here in London just hoping the announcement on Monday brings good news.
That’s a pretty amazing picture. I saw it on USATODAY also and was going to mention it if you hadnt seen it already.
Looks like y’all had fun, can’t wait to play with my own soon enough!
I think Apple should hire you as a PR!
Vincent also made it to Australia… Online at The Age.com.au
Great Pic!

yeah look at that victory run! good on you buddy!!!!
damn it, vincent is everywhere —– I just saw him in theglobeandmail.com out of canada!
There’s a big section on vincent alone – this is what the reporter said word for word:
“In fact, it isn’t until you get to No. 8 that you encounter someone who actually knows a lot about computers — Vincent Nguyen, 32, a professional blogger and technology analyst http://Myitablet.com out of Scottsdale, Ariz.
Mr. Nguyen is a serious technophile: he was at the iPhone launch last January, has met Steve Jobs, believes the iPhone is everything it has been hyped to be; the first time someone has “taken the existing technology and brought it together in one device.”
Which isn’t to say he’s not also selling. Mr. Nguyen has handed out T-shirts numbered one to 10 to the first 10 people in line. They’re emblazoned with the name of one of the sponsors of Mr. Nguyen’s website. Hype begets hype, and hopefully hype squared will beget some traffic to his blog.”
– you were handing free t-shirts and prizes out?!
