With the UK supposedly receiving a very limited stock of Apple’s newest smartphone and O2 limiting sales to one-per-customer, demand for the iPhone 3G is likely to be unprecedented. Alas, the typical British summer weather seems to be dampening shoppers’ spirits and we weren’t able to snag a single sound bite when we took our video camera down to the Regent Street Apple Store this morning. Watch the video after the cut.
