The iPhone 3G hits 20 more countries tomorrow, and while we doubt the hype will match the craziness of launch day, that’s not stopping Orange from trying to re-create the madness in Poland — it’s hiring “dozens” of actors to line up at 20 stores around the country to “drum up interest.” Yeah, that’s just sad — especially since there aren’t any real customers in line at Polish T-Mobile stores, which is also carrying the phone. Good luck selling phones to your own actors, fools — when will these companies ever learn?

PS.- That’s a pic from launch day in Chicago — any Polish readers have a shot of the actors for us? Send ‘em in!

Update: Yep, there they are, from appleblog.pl — and check a video after the break from Gazeta.
