I have talked on my iPhone for a total of 47 hours since I bought it on the day it was released. My rollover minutes now rival the national debt.

My unlocked iPhone arrived today here in Montreal (actually my wife's but she will let me play with it).

The iPhone...a balanced device for balanced people

it'll be fun to watch where the iPhone takes us over the next five years. It's like the iPod all over again.

Il only use it for phone calls, all those other features like web browsing are useless.

"it'll be fun to watch where the iPhone takes us over the next five years."

I hope it's a light cycle race like the one in Tron. That would be sweet.

How did he replace his 8 GB iPhone with a 16 GB iPhone last fall? The 16 GB did not come out last fall.

@ Ampar

OH YEAH. And I want a glowing frisbee that kills people!

I would use my iPhone to post this message, but I'm sitting at my desk in work on a 24" iMac so I'll use that instead.

Still, nice to have the option!

"she will let me play with it"

@Buster
just itouch her!

I perform *most* of the work once done on my laptop with my iPhone.

Unless the damned thing rings (usually scaring the crap outta me), I oft forget that it's not a tiny 'lil computer after all.

As if a study had to be done. All anyone with a few grams of brains had to do is pick one up, see what does. Ah-ha!

The light should go immediately.

"And I want a glowing frisbee that kills people!"

I'll settle for a Popsicle bomb that startles the dog.

My iPhone is a pocket computer that just so happens to be a telephone too.

I AM the REAL® ZT, and take great offense at the remarks against my judgement.

@ZT You have no judgement ®eally, I am ®ight on this. You ®eally don't.

@ChrissyOne,

And for Ballmer perhaps a glowing boomerang that kills people!

@Ampar....you are bringing back fond memories. I made popsicle stick bombs as a kid around 40 (holy crap!) years ago.

@ Roberto

I think he would hurt himself. >.<

Yeah, DeAgonia was right with his figures. Most iPhone users don't really use the phone part of the iPhone. Because of the terrible speaker, right? Isn't that what one reporter commented on earlier, that it doesn't really work as well as a phone?

Still, when you can use it to get onto the real Internet and to listen to music, what do you really need a phone for?

" I made popsicle stick bombs as a kid around 40 (holy crap!) years ago."

They had refrigeration way back then?

That's the whole idea..

Study confirms the completely obvious.

Wait, this just in!!

Study confirms 2 + 2 = 4

"Recently, I read an interesting report regarding the Sun. NASA's Langley Reasearch Center found that the Sun differs in many ways from the Moon" Michael DeAgonia reports for Retardworld.

"The Sun actually produces light and heat, while the Moon only reflects it" DeAgonia reports. "And while we see both the Sun and the Moon in the same day, we are much more likely to be warmed by the Sun".

"What surprised me out of NASA's statistics is that human beings had less exposure to the Moon, and more time in the Sun -- 46.5% compared to 71.7%" DeAgonia reports. "At first I had a fleeting moment of defensiveness; I wondered if they were insinuating the Moon isn't as good as the Sun".

DeAgonia reports, "It turns out that people tend to sleep at night, hence experience less time exposing themselves to the Moon".

Sorry, late to the party, butt Buster, when she lets you play with it, be sure to try out using two fingers to make it wide, then small, then wide, then small, then wide, and then use a single finger to move it around a bit. Once she sees how much you enjoy this, I'm sure she will let you play with it more often.

Next lesson: the one finger vibrate mode.....

I can't believe it took 28 minutes for someone to pick up on Buster's comments about "playing with it".

Come on folks, you're being less than 'snappy' here!!

Apr 25, 08 - 07:14 pm Comment from: TowerTone

Uh oh, sorry for the extra 't' in the 'but'.
That made it sound nasty......

Buttbuster ... yikes!

Apr 25, 08 - 09:00 pm Comment from: shen

really. An extra 't' in the butt sounds nasty? Who would have guessed.....

C1,

Lucky you, I have made a total of 15 days and 17 hours worth of calls.

And if you don't count software and OS upgrades, I'm willing to bet large sums of money that I have downloaded much more data via it than on my MBP.

Only thing I wish for that noone else seems to be even care for is the ability to print boarding passes from it. That would be liberating!

Suddenly, the Thighmaster became a lot less interesting.

Where do I buy that glowing frisbee and what colors does it come in? I would also buy a glowing boomerang in any color so long as it frightens big dogs and small people.

Hmmm...why is my ass aching everytime I sit down.....
