Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

A reader you're not using?! Bad, sad, so not rad.

I have yet to see a kindle. I saw and hated the Nook. I have seen Sony's and while not thrilled they are OK and about 1000 times better than the Nook (IMO of course).

I've seen several kindles used on public transit.
I tried not to stare and drool too noticeably....

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
OMFG MAIL THREADING!!
I somehow missed that there would be mail threading. I was so excited about the unified inbox that I somehow skipped and skimmed? OMG!
Also, I now have my folder of Crap I Don't Use.
I don't have multitasking because I have a 3G. But the other parts are totes worth the endless download/backup/install/restore/sync-yet-again business, especially since I didn't have anything else I needed to be doing with the phone during that time.
Did I mention THREADED MAIL IN MY UNIFIED INBOX?

Yeah, I downloaded the update the other night and it took FOREVER. I still haven't put it on the phone, though.

Since I haven't taken my laptop with me, I will be upgrading when I get back. Of course, I may not even bother, since I'm planning on getting a 4 in July.

Our wings are not tired.
Wish I could afford a 4. It's not in my budget right now. I'll be buying a used 3GS and making do for a while.
