Also, thanks to all those who peer pressured me into getting it. The trip (main excuse for getting said device) just finished, and I was entertained as needed.
Ooh, nice list, OA. Bookmarked.
Ooo! I just found a shiny!!!! You can add your own ringtones to your iPhone! And it does NOT require a hack. It does NOT void your Apple Warranty. And they have a "try before you buy" ability!

Kinda funny. Here I have a fancy schmancy phone that can play all sorts of high quality sounds, and what do I do? I find my favorite cheesey 8-bit(ish) MID file that has been my ringtone for YEARS and convert it to a AAC so my phone can play it. Once again I have "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" as a ringtone

Argh, I'm so frustrated! I bought this [link] hard drive about a month ago because of serious space issues, and it worked completely fine, so I put like 100 gigs of stuff on there, and now the fucking thing is clicking away and not loading. Can someone point me to a link of self-troubleshooting for hard drives that have done nosedives? I am going to be so pissed if all that data is lost.
mine was doing that and I had to recover 120GB of data through getdataback.
It recovered my entire itunes library. yes, I would have been ass out without it.

I went through an iTunes loss early this year, so I feel for you -- it was a new drive failure, too.
I had all my iTunes music on my Mac Mini, which was set to do an update every night. But now all my music is on my MacBook, and I currently have no automated backup set up. This is making me nervous. Have to get that Time Machine set up....
Time Machine has the coolest interface!
Ha! I now have a Google phone running Android!
OK, an emulator for a phone. But still, I created and ran the "Hello, Android" application. Fun.
