    In reply to iPhone Apps Have to Be Approved by Robots Now, Too
    It sucks in the sense that it cuts you off from getting the most out of your software. On the flipside though you have to develop within the rules of the platform ESPECIALLY if you're releasing your app commercially. You may not fuss much if an Apple update breaks your app but the people that bought it will.

    What Apple should do after this though is open up to feedback on what API's devs want making public. Give the functionality the devs want to them. #appstore

    So, in 1984, that young exec was bragging to his former frat brothers about how he makes more money than God, spends it all on blow, and has a sweet new boobie-phone.

    Anyone else find it ironic that this product can be ordered from a company based out of Mission, Kansas? #theeroticaphone

    I think it'd provide aural sex rather than oral sex.

    I'm surprised that it only plugs into the wall and doesn't let you plug-in. #theeroticaphone

    Too bad we won't be able to import the phones. Thanks, Japan, for locking your phones into one carrier, even if they support GSM, and creating a lucrative market for outdated models (at over $500 or so for a phone even on eBay with one of those el-cheapo fake-out SIM module things I have to PASTE onto a SIM card).

    When will Japan learn there's a demand for their phones in the US? #fujitsuconceptphones

    These designs look so dated. For the next couple years I expect almost all phones to either be a touchscreen slab or have a keyboard like the Pixi or Pre. I can only see a place for numerical keypads for small, cheap phones or for the elderly.

    It'd be nice if there was something cool and unexpected tho... #fujitsuconceptphones

    Maybe I'm naive, but isn't that a good thing? It always seemed to me that if you wanted to use unauthorized APIs just make a jailbreak app. Othewise if you want to be in the App Store, stick to the rules (which are admittedly draconian at times, but this not being one of them). #appstore

    @Nathan Obbards: I drove into Compton once looking for gas. The guy waving the gun at me on the off ramp didn't seem to like me too much (or maybe it was my driving).

    Sadly, this is a true story. #magellanroadmate

    @Nathan Obbards: actually that exchange happens a few miles north of Santa Ana where it's actually nicer. Not to mention that richer areas like Yorba Linda, Walnut, Chino Hills are along the 57. #magellanroadmate

    @TheSonOfKrypton: Agreed, having the google navigation app now(since we worked so hard on xda-developers to get it to work on the G1), all others look like trash. Even those that cost upwards of $100 pale in comparison. #magellanroadmate
