No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

By "pieces and a profound apology," can I assume you mean "an iPhone and a $100 bill"?

No, I mean "Here's the pieces of your Treo, sorry, I guess you have to go buy a new phone now, huh? Ha ha."

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

Hmmmm.

Still pretty tempting.

(Once I cried because I had no iPhone. Then I met a man who had no Treo...)

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

You won't be able to get apps for the iPhone until June. June.

Ooh! I can get Dylan an iPhone for his birthday!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm sure it's fairly baby-proof! Nice rounded corners and no moving parts on the surface!

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

If anybody wants AIM/Yahoo/MSN on iPhone/iPod Touch, bookmark ebuddy.com. It works a treat on the move.

I loves me some Fake Steve Jobs:

BlackBerry is dead. Microsoft is dead. Windows Mobile is dead. Amazon is dead. Kindle is dead. Nokia is dead. Motorola was already dead but now they are even more dead. Google's Android is dead. Samsung is dead. LG is dead. Sony is dead. UTStarcom is dead.

I am sitting here just watching the trailer for "Ironman" with the volume cranked on my stereo and I'm running around going "I ... am ... Ironman ..." in that weird computer voice. Truly, I am invincible. I rule the world. I am the greatest human being that ever lived. I feel just like that friggin Ironman guy, honestly. Bullets cannot pierce my iron skin. Apple is the greatest company in the world. We rock so hard it's amazing.

Random question: does anyone have an iPod alarm clock that DOESN"T have a "gradually increases in volume!" alarm? Seems like all the versions I've seen at say, Target (including the one I bought before I found this "feature") advertise that like it's a good thing. Personally, I don't need it to get louder--I like to leave it on and listen to the radio, but if it gets louder, I have to hit snooze to make it stop before it wakes the neighbors.

(I dont' much use the iPod part for the alarmness of it, but like to be able to use it on occasion)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I have an iHome that I use the radio alarm to wake up to. The "Gradual Wake" is just a few seconds long, almost like it's warming up when the alarm goes off. After that it's the volume I've set.

Unless I've got an older model that doesn't have that feature, but it looks exactly the same.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I don't have an iPod alarm, but I do have an alarm clock that gradually increases in volume *to the limit I set*. It doesn't just keep getting louder until the walls are shaking.
