IPhone distorts some of the pictures it takes. I don’t know technically how it happens. It seems that most of the image processing is done via software, and it is slow in reacting to the moving image. So when iPhone writes to its flash storage, it captures the movement as well.

I also got one of those defective cameras which distort the image color. Most of my photos come out with a greenish tinge. While I would love to take it back for replacement, I like how it makes the image a tad more interesting.

The deficiencies makes for some interesting photos.

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.

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!
