Another year, another advance in computing technology that leaves me further behind the times.

Back in 1987, when I was manufactured, phones were for human interaction and that was it- they had answering machines back then, too, I think. And speakerphone. But now, what is all this mumbo jumbo? Why does a telephone need to be mobile, and capable of playing high-quality music files and video games? My thought-generation program tells me that stereo systems are for music and that arcade machines are for video games. I think this entire iPhone business is ruthlessly unnecessary and a blight on the world of computing. Why spend time writing the code and building the casing of this monstrosity when lonely machines like me are sitting in computer lab closets waiting to be used?

Oh, woe is me.

Give blood everyday, wait is this for Alex? If so nevermind, your blood will get rejected.

Also, the downloaded Iphone presentation looks the same when I play it on quicktime. What the fuck! All that downloading...

flash woes perhaps?

Alex's Trip · 06.26.2007, 07:13 PM

Eh, fuck it. I'll just use this view and wait till iTunes 8. Maybe it'll be fixed.

Alex's Trip · 06.26.2007, 07:32 PM

Fixed it.

I had to get new drivers for my video card.

SynthethicalY · 06.26.2007, 07:38 PM

HAHA. DOn't you hate that Alex, when the problems are so fucking easy.

demonrail666 · 06.26.2007, 07:41 PM

I could never justify paying that much for something that'd get stolen the moment I took it out in the street to make a call.

Norma J · 06.26.2007, 08:17 PM

I'm not one who needs the latest gadgets.
Don't even know what one is and I don't care to know what one is.

LatexLove · 06.26.2007, 08:23 PM

Latex in his own thoughts thinks that he should wait till the gadget spoken in this here thread, is lower in price.

So I watched it, and I definitely want it more than before, even though I really don't need it.

Maybe once I leave for college or something it'd be nice to have, and it'd be more useful and thus worth the money. At that point I'd probably need a new phone or ipod or something. But still, it needs to be on Verizon.

Watch the video. You can have word documents, pdf documents, and I'm assuming plenty of other stuff.

i'm getting a 4gig model on friday.

sure i already have an ipod, two laptops and an imac, but when it boils down to it, my laptops are my instruments and i'd feel more confident if i didn't have to take them out of the house as much, but could still stay connected to the internet (especially since most of my communication is done via email). i don't like most of the business phones and this is the first phone that i've been really excited about.

btw, those "hidden prices" that got posted posted weren't quite right. the voice plan includes the data plan and text messages (not many texts, mind you, but the data is unlimited). i already pay 80 bucks a month for service on my shitty razr phone and i'd be more than happy to pay just as much for an awesome iphone.

screamingskull · 06.30.2007, 09:40 AM

so did you get one Val-holla-ing?

i worked out the 4GB one's are actually only about £250 which isn't as bad as i thought.

val-holla-ing · 06.30.2007, 06:33 PM

yeah, i got one! it's awesome and money well spent! it's so easy to use and it's fun. i love it.

screamingskull · 06.30.2007, 06:38 PM

how much did it cost you?
