iPhone finally a reality

I’m just glad it’s official and out of the way. Now all the fanatics can focus their attention elsewhere with the rumor sites.

I don’t have any opinion of the new iPhone. I’ll see when it ships but right now, I like the phone I have and my iPod Mini still has much more mileage remaining.

Maybe it’s my age but I’m not keen on having Internet access, music, etc. around so often. For years the cell phone providers have been pushing us to rack up the bill by playing online games, text messaging and browsing the Internet on these devices. It’s nice to have a phone when you’re using public transportation or at the laundromat, but if you have so much downtime, I think it would be better to read a book.

    Yes! It seems that we are really a country of fat, lazy over-teched people. I love my mac but my god get outside once and awhile, and read book or a newspaper once and awhile. Hell when is last time you played pinball?

    Yes, read a book…on your portable device! I carry a library of about a hundred titles at a time on my iPaq 1940–most of them classics ported over from a Gutenberg.org txt file, but some tech articles–so there’s always something to read while waiting at the doctor’s office, or riding in a car, or sitting on the john. Last year I read through War and Peace on my PDA! Highly recommended.
