Hmmm.....angry mobs? therapy sessions? suicide? All over the excitement surrounding a phone that hasn't even been announced, only alluded to. Everyone is getting swallowed in the hype.

I won't lie, I've been waiting too, but it's not a huge deal to me since I'm jobless at the moment and can't afford it either way.

Back to the post, I used to skate those loading docks back in the day! Never realized they had Apple product inside. Of course, since it's Fremont, there's a good chance that those boxes are just full of meth. No joke.

Man, do I love all you Apple gypsies. Thanks for clearing that up. What else does your crystal ball tell you?

I dunno, switching to Intel was a pretty big "we made the wrong choice" moment. I don't think Apple has a "we're always right" problem, so much as a "we define our own market rather than let our market define us" problem. For the most part, it works for them. So far, it's worked for me too, but I do think that cutting off PPC so soon would be a bad thing. Every app is universal now, so why do it?

or you can also hold the eject button on the keyboard. so many choices.

Nobody seems to remember a little problem PPC had called HEAT. People wanted a 3GHz PPC PowerMac/ Mac Pro and that was just never going to happen without melting that pretty aluminum case. Not to mention that engineers were having a tough time keeping the chips cool in the Powerbook.

I hope you're right. I wonder how much longer we're going to feel the effects of Clark shutting down. Until new boards go below $500-600, I'm buying used.

1. Gilette Mach 3 Razors
2. ATM surcharges
3. "Gas price inflation"
4. Apple for iPod batteries, Macbook batteries, LCD screens, Power supply, etc.
5. RIAA
6. Microsoft for RRoD
7. Wireless carriers for texting charges

However long it takes you to get over the fact that you're kissing a mass murderer.

Can you please explain to me why I have a college degree and yet still can't find a job in the Bay Area that pays enough to live without dumpster-diving? Or why entry-level jobs require 1-3 years of experience? Thanks in advance.

"In three years there will probably be a 4G or Wimax version, with other features that Steve hasn't even dreamt about yet."

I dunno, based on how long development takes, Steve probably dreamt about all that stuff last night.

@justinpe:

"The exclusive deal with ATT in the US is the biggest thing keeping it from becoming the most popular phone ever. I can't even begin to count the times that my friends or acquaintances have said they would buy an iPhone in a heartbeat if it were available on Sprint, Tmobile, Verizon, etc."

I don't know about you, but I'm happy that they've kept the iPhone far away from Verizon. Imagine an iPhone with that hideous red interface and crippled features. And I can tell you it's definitely is "the network" that I will miss when the iPhone goes 3G and I jump ship- the people network. It's free to call all my friends and family cause they all have Verizon too.
