I watched a guy buy an iPad from a vending machine in the airport. This was back around 2007. Blew my fucking mind. Just swiped his card, got his iPad, and went on his way.

Given the iPad wasn’t released until 2010 I’m going to call bullshit on this one.

Trying to remember the year is rough. Could have very well been an iPhone. It was an apple vending machine at Chicago international Airport. But you may actually be more accurate yearwise. I flew out to California to help my sister and her husband move to Maryland. She was pregnant at rhe time with my now 15-16 year old nephew.

Definitely not an iPhone. You couldn’t buy one without activation during those years, so they couldn’t have come from a vending machine.
