Samsung sets up temp shop next to Apple store in Sydney

Samsung ambushes Apple’s iPhone 4S launch in Sydney.

Wow. This is sort of just. Sad. If you’re THAT shameless and desperate to make any sales that you have to resort to this sort of thing, don’t you have to re-examine your life, or something?

The worst part is that Samsung isn’t going to be luring anyone from buying a 4S with this. Anyone crazy enough to be in an iPhone line for several hours doesn’t care much about a couple hundred dollar discount. So they’re only really attracting more of their own Android fanboys to their store, rather than taking away any of Apple’s.

“There’s this guy who has come up to us trying to convince us to buy the Samsung Galaxy S II two days in a row now,” said Tom. “And he’s an idiot.”

Pretty much says it all.
