    why would they have the record if their total is split between two people??

    @manyou07: What the article doesn't mention is that the two men are pathetic fucking losers. So much so, that they can legally be considered one person as their combined brain power matches closely to that of modern Bonobos.

    did they setup some kind of texting program or did they do it all by hand? seems like a huge waste of time to have your name in the news for a few seconds.

    If they are on T-Mobile why is there a screen shot of an iPhone ?

    @Jake Shaw: The only other network you can get the iPhone to work on is tmobile. Of course, you either have to software unlock the 1G or buy a sim attachment for the 3G, but it can be done.


    Also, as mentioned above it is Giz, and after that I wonder if anyone would really care what phone they use. Sort of like how TV shows will have a kid playing with Gamecube controllers but a Dreamcast is sitting above the TV. It's just for effect.


    So stop askin' questions ya' hear???!?!!?

    I think the real question is, why don't they just get married?

    @Epoch's apple copyright violation: "T-Mobile has apparently credited the phone bill and is now investigating the charges"
