While some Australians were first in the world to grab an iPhone 7 from an Apple Store in Sydney Friday morning,Watch New Son (2020) Korean movie it's much more of a challenge for those living in the outback.
Take Les Pilton, who has been running a pub in the tiny town of Barrow Creek in the Northern Territory for the past 28 years. The town has a population of 4, and Pilton's pub is the only stop in a 500 kilometre (310 mile) stretch of road.
SEE ALSO: Around the world with the iPhone 7 launchPilton lives a good 300 kilometres (186 miles) away from Alice Springs, in the dead centre of Australia. It'd be quite the effort to pick up a new iPhone, so mobile carrier Telstra brought one to him in person.
The brand new iPhone 7 was delivered to Pilton at 8:01 a.m. CST by the reseller's Northern Territory local area manager, Neale Wigney. It's quite the upgrade for Pilton, who was using an old 2G Nokia flip phone before the iPhone.
"This new iPhone 7 will make my life easier to run my business, run my orders online, get emails and carry all of this with me when I visit Alice Springs -- this will cut the distance down," he said in a statement via email.

Living in Barrow Creek, a remote locality, your business means you need to live here and the iPhone 7 will certainly help me maintain the memories of the great sunsets and taking photographs of the area. I'm looking forward to taking shots of sunsets for the next year."
While Apple and other mobile carriers will sell plenty of iPhones on Friday, this might be the most unique way to get one on release day.
