Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

Yeah, piss off, I can't even get mine to admit that there's a version newer than 1.1.4.

I don't have a cellphone and I confess I'm feeling the schadenfreude in a smug sort of Luddite way.

At least you have a PHONE right now!

I've got nothing.

So don't get too annoyed that you can't turn your phone into a silver brick. I'm sure you'll be able to disable the thing soon enough.

Just checked and the activation servers are down and have been going down all day. It's leaving folks in Sean's situation with phones bricked half way through activation. Even the stores can't activate new phones right now.

Hmmm, I think we all have diamond underpants that are giving us a wedgie.

I'll pick his pocket.

edit: Though all of this is reminding me of why I've never been a cutting-edge technology user--aside from the price.

Latest I've seen is that the servers are down for an indeterminate amount of time.
