The status is NOT quo.

I AM A TECH GODDESS. Which is to say that I screwed around with everything long enough to figure out what was wrong and have reconfigured everything and it is working working working and way faster than before! Huzzah!

Long story short, figured out that Mom has had the ethernet connected to the LAN port on the Airport rather than WAN for a gazillion years, so I'm amazed the problem took this long to rear its ugly head. Once I switched the cable, I set everything back to automatic DHCP (DCHP?) to make the DSL happy, reset the Airport using Airport utility, rebooted the modem and Airport, and voila! Fixed and working and finding nice little IP addresses that actually work now. And since I updated the firmware from 5.4 to 5.7, it's even faster! Did I mention HUZZAH?

Sorry for hijacking the thread. Back to lurkdom I go.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

OK. Picking upy iPhone at the store rather than getting it delivered was a big, big mistake.

The line is moving! I'm on Madison between 58th and 59th now. It looks like it will only be 2-3 hours, which is what I expected.

hip deep in pie

I'm on Madison between 58th and 59th now.

I hope that's not the line for the Soho store.

I'm in the plaza at 5th Ave. now. The line is moving at a pretty good clip.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I hope you get inside before it hails today, Tom!

Since the pre-order process failed miserably for me, I'll probably wait a week or two before trying to buy one in a store.
