As I am starting to read the reviews of the iPhone it looks pretty
promising. The only thing I don't get is that these reviews are acting
like checking email and surfing the web from a phone is a new thing. I
have been doing that since 2002. PocketPC phones have been running
around since then and they have been doing everything the iPhone has.
The only thing, and I mean only thing, the iPhone does that the others
don't is be able to view youtube videos on the phone. I also question
whether the iPhone can work with the SlingBox - the coolest app for
mobile phones out there, allowing you to stream and control your home TV
on your phone. I haven't been a fan of Apple in a long time. They
overprice everything. The only advantage they have is style and form and
maybe simplicity. That is why the iPod was so successful. Congrats go
out to my brother-in-laws company that makes the Jawbone headset. They
are marketing the Jawbone with the iPhone. It is the rich person's
headset. They must've gotten someone to really market their product.
Their past has taught me a lesson. You can have the best product in the
world but if you can't market it, you've got nothing. Will I get the
iPhone? Well, I have Verizon and if it is available my next phone I may
get it. Provided it works with the SlingBox.

Joke
A little boy was in a relative's wedding. As he was coming down the
aisle he would take two steps, stop and turn to the crowd (alternating
between bride's side and groom's side). While facing the crowd, he would
put his hands up like claws and roar. So it went, step, step, "ROAR,"
step, step, "ROAR," all the way down the aisle. As you can imagine, the
crowd was near tears from laughing so hard by the time he reached the
pulpit.
The little boy, however, was getting more and more distressed from all
the laughing, and was also near tears by the time he reached the pulpit.

When asked what he was doing, the child sniffed and said, "I was being
the Ring Bear."
