I almost hurled at the smugness of steve Jobs on the news this morning. At the launch of the i-phone. He was showing off the phone to 4000 apple-ites and he demonstrates that YOU CAN MAKE CALLS WITH IT!!! So who does he call? Starbucks....groan....what does he say?....Can I order 4000 latte's please? Appleites roar with laughter..........

.....Apple.....Starbucks......latte........that whole scene makes me cringe....

Amount of money Bill Gates has donated to fight third world disease and poverty: billions.

Amount of money Steve Jobs has donated to help anyone on this planet: 0.

The guy is a hero because he makes nice plastic.

I'm sooo disappointed with Apple right now. I was hoping to see 12" MBP, wide screen iPod, MacMini (with dedicated VGA) and all I get is iPhone? *sigh*

If Apple only sold iPhone without phone functionality and slammed a decent amount of memory in it, then I would buy it.

What's all the fuss about? This is not a new invention. I see people here in Korea all the time with phone/music box combos.

I wonder if those old "brick" phones will still work? I'd scoop up a couple. I bet they'll be retro cool in a few more years.
