omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Sean, you should tell Mark J that, see if we can finally convert him over to AT&T. He's been drooling over the iPhone for awhile, maybe he'll buy your 1st gen off you, if you haven't dropped it too many times ;)

Yeah, about that...

I actually walked in to the Apple Store intending to just buy a replacement set of iPhone ear buds. Why? Because some time yesterday, the ear speaker and microphone stopped working (ie, when holding it like a phone, I couldn't actually use it as a phone). I could only use it as a speaker phone.

About thirty seconds after I walked in, I decided I needed more than $25 worth of retail therapy.

Which is all to say, Mark J is welcome to buy my 1st Gen, but I wouldn't feel right charging him very much for it.

My damned iPhone, and the new Phonesaber update, tricked me into buying Force Unleashed: Mobile.

But since I thought I was paying for some of the upgrades to the Phonesaber, which means I was perfectly willing to pay $10 for a silly iPhone Lightsaber, I'm not going to complain too much.

ya I was pissed free version update of light saber no longer makes sounds when you wield it. I haven't forked the cash for it yet. I'm geeky, but I'm also cheap.

Hey. New board.

Is the Centro a GSM phone?

Both. I paid $250 (after education discount) to get an unlocked GSM version, which I use on T-mobile. My plan costs me $60 a month including T-Mobile hot spot, 400 messages, and unlimited data.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Okay, my Treo went from being fully charged when I left the apartment to 12% battery life just now. It's probably still under warranty, but it will be the THIRD time I'll have replaced this phone for battery life issues. Enough is enough.

iPhone here I come.

Aaaaaand it took me less than 24 hours to drop the 3G. Thankfully, I bought a hardshell when I got the phone.

OK, the music stored on my hard drive is skipping. It was fine last time it played.
