On the other hand, they have Canfield, which is the One True Solitaire. My subway rides just got slightly less hellish.

Oh man, the hours I wasted on that when I had a Mac. Now I have to make do with Spider.

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

Does Apple.com or iTunes have a list of apps available so I can decide whether it's worth it to upgrade my Touch?

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

Once you upgrade iTunes to 7.7 (the upgrade just pushed today, so you may or may not have), you can check out the app store whether you're upgraded or not.

I am finding it to be an excellent waste of precious work time research resource even though I have no iPhone or Touch at all.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Anybody have any idea why all of a sudden my computer keeps losing the internet, and the only way to fix it is unplugging and re-plugging the modem cord? It's a new laptop.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

What do I have to do to get the new applications on my iTouch? I've updated iTunes, so that I have access to the Apps store (and can grab a bunch of free apps) so that they show up in the Applications window. But when I Sync my iTouch, nothing changes.

Help? All the instructions I've run across so far seem to be exclusively aimed at iPhones, so I can't figure out what I'm supposed to do....

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

Theo, you have to purchase the iPod Touch 2.0 firmware in order to install and run apps.

It's a free upgrade for iPhone owners, but Touch owners need to pay for the upgrade. It costs ten bucks.

Trust my rage

So, I just finished downloading the new Apple update for my iPhone and now my phone is not working. It's back to "Emergency Call Only" status and iTunes isn't recognizing anything on it. I keep getting an iTunes Store error even though I can access the store.

I'm off to see if the Internet has any tips for me but I thought I'd just share my experience as a warning. (Although I see others have not had the same problem. So it could be just me.)
