What It Feels Like to Own an iPhone
« on: July 15, 2007, 01:12:25 am »
This blog post (posted a full week before the iPhone was even released) pretty much nails it for me:

Ha - I like the last picture.  I've never wanted a cell phone... but all the other features almost make it something I want.  But it has phone in the name, so I'm conflicted.

Those are so effing cool. I can't wait to get one.

Then again, I bought one of the second-gen iPods when I was in grad school. It was retired when my crap dude ex bought me a 2nd gen aluminum iPod Nano. I still have it somewhere. I'm hoping that by the time I have enough scratch lying around to buy a ridiculously expensive phone that the iPhone will have become even more awesome than it already is.

That's my hope, anyway.

The iPhone doesn't come over here till late this year/early next year. I'm hoping it'll have 3g by then.

God knows I'm not a violent man, but I have an almost irresistible urge to find this guy and punch him in the face.

I hope I never have to refer to a scone in spoken conversation.

No, but it seems to create a lot of them...

I enjoy my new mobile device, but because everyone else hates surfing the internet on their cell phones they assume that this new one must be bad too.

No, but you can look at clearly defined images of pussy... or images of men or women doing things to pussy.  Eventually this new technology will lead to people being arrested for looking at porno inappropriately or sharing it inappropriately.

I've seen plenty of 20-something gentlemen on my charter flight looking at and showing off porn on their PSPs.

O_O is this something that men do frequently? "Hey bro, here's a picture of ******************. I figured that as men, we could share this pornographic image and appreciate it together. Pretty cool, huh?"

Swapping porn on a plane?  Why don't these boys just set their game systems aside and have sex with each other?  Have you suggested this to them?  I mean if they like Limp Bizkit they're already half way there anyway.
