This will be crazy. The iPhone track alone will be f’ing packed like sardines, because aren’t they supposed to release iPhone 2.0 around this time?
Remind me again why I work at IniTech.
Fruity Apple Unboxing
This flickr set of an uboxing of an Apple Computer is awesome. Can’t get over that retro feel.

“We need more complaint cards.”
Amazon has released their online music store. MP3s for $0.89. Whole albums for as low as $5.00.
Apple should be worried.
No pernicious DRM to keep you from moving the files to and from wherever. Works with the iPod. And cheaper too.
They even have a download manager that’ll copy it to iTunes for you.
Competition has just arrived.
“Dave, if medicine tasted good, I’d be pouring cough syrup in my pancakes.”
Steve Jobs, that magnificent bastard, has started giving us early iPhone adopters $100 back.
Woot!
“No, I think in Matthew’s world candy elves are a common occurrence.”
Steve Jobs, that magnificent bastard, gives us iPhone owners $100 in Apple store credit. I'm planning on getting a 4 GB iPhone! Woot!!
Now where did I put that receipt?
BTW, his letter reads more like Fake Steve than the real deal.
“Shredding the instruction book for the shredder. Talk about your mind blowing irony.”
Can I whine about the iPhone price drop? I mean I bought it the first day. I bought into the hype. Steve Jobs owes me. He OWES me $200!
Bullocks!
I knew buying an iPhone then meant getting stuck with a 1.0 release. Being first when getting some kind of tech gadget means that you'll be bummed out when the 2.0 comes out.
And it will come out.
It won't be in the form of an 16 GB iPhone. That'll come this Christmas.
But iPhone 2.0 will be sleeker, cooler, sexier. It will be more powerful. It will have a longer battery life. It will be available for other carriers. It will have cooler applications. It will be another thing to drool over. It will cost cheaper for the amount of features it has. It may still cost $600 but will certainly be worth it.
It's coming. You'll want to buy it. You'll buy it.
And then Apple will pull the rug from under you, drop the price, and bring out iPhone 3.0. Let the whining begin again.
“Cadbury got up early this morning and left, along with my wallet, my credit cards, my TV, my stereo and most of my furniture.”
Steve Jobs, that magnificent bastard, lowered the price for the iPhone to $399. That’s $200 cheaper than two months ago. Let the whining begin.
Hey, CapitolSwell can you start a letter writing campaign?
UPDATE: They got the 4 GB iPhone going for $299 while supplies last. Looks to be we’re gonna be getting that 16 GB version for Christmas!
