A bit off-topic, but I'm curious. When was the giganto mall in Durham built? (It's been 10 years since I moved up here. Wow, how time flies)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Sheryl, about 5 years? Right around there, anyway. And it's really a very different feeling from the older malls in the area; more, hmm, Charlotte-ish?
And Stephanie, I totally get you. (Plus, secretly, my anti-consumerish stance is hiding the fact that I don't go there because the huge and the crowds and the shiny give me galloping panic attacks. But it sounds so much cooler to be hip and jaded!) And I'd love to have you back!

Trust my rage
(I was going to keep talking about the mall, but it's way OT so never mind.)

One day to iPhone.

So, we know Drew is buying one. Anyone else?
I'm on the fence - it's not easy to get from here, it is a bunch of money, but it's really cool and so far, the reviews all seem to be very positive.

The soonest I'll get one is in a year. I want to wait for updated devices before I dive in.
Also, it might be nice if at&t's network is upgraded in that time...

I am planning on getting a new phone soon, but I think I'm going to not get the iPhone...and plan to get one in two years when my new contract would be up. I figure any kinks will be worked out by then. Plus I'm very excited by the concept of GPS on the phone (I want the Helio Ocean). Which I'm thinking the iPhone will probably have two years from now. Plus, by then my Nano that I bought for Christmas will be up for replacing...

I want an iPhone badly, but I suspect it will be a long while before I can even think about affording one.

I'll be getting a new one in a year as well. I pretty much replace my cell phone once a year. I figure even if this phone has issues, it's still going to be as least as good as the crap that was my 8125 and the crash prone and totally outdated Palm OS. I don't expect the iPhone to live up to the hype, but it would have to be pretty damned bad to be worse than the dreck that is currently on the market.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I've been told by someone who is in a very good position to know that it's probably better to wait until fall.
