the early nerd gets the phoneCategory: mobile
I got to the apple store too late. They have enough phones but the At&t servers were down and so the line was estimating 4 hours. I do not wait for anything for 4 hours - accept maybe food during some future rationing. I mean I already have a 3 g capable gps mobile on AT&T what is waiting another bit for it to be an iPhone.
It's so stupid that the force instore activation. It makes me hate AT&T. I mean if they are going to demand it they should make sure they have the resoucres to handle it.
Plus they are so cheap that they will become commonplace making it exponentially less cool and less worthy of a four hour wait. - it's kind of like when Hello Kitty when they started selling it at target and you no longer had to travel to the ends of the earth to find the San rio store.
I still want one though, I am just not willing to wait. The craziest part Is that in that four hour long line it was exclusively men.
Plus they are so cheap now and si many people will have one, that it's not even something special
The rest of the day I will be working on the apartment.

Hahaha... I am ALWAYS the mindless drone who NEVER realizes that it's me they are calling. It doesn't even take a crowd in my case. Go figure.

Another funny thing is the people who were at the AT&T store for normal things....one obnoxious guy was trying to buy a case for his Instinct, which isn't even an AT&T phone of course. Another was there to ask about a corporate discount on her existing line, getting all pissy because it's taking so long. It was totally disorganized too, one woman is going along the line taking information to give to the rep at the counter to expedite our orders, yet she gives it to the rep helping me after she already entered it all in making it a total waste of time. They'd call the next person and everyone would stand there looking at each other...GO UP TO THE COUNTER. THERE IS NO BODY IN FRONT OF YOU, MEANING YOU ARE NEXT. My God when there's a crowd people just turn into mindless drones!

stopped by the Sheridan AT&T store this morning...line outside, door locked, they're letting in one person at a time. Then I find out they're out of the phones and just taking orders. I say screw this and run to the Galleria. Get in line at AT&T (didn't want to go to Apple because they can't honor my company discount and I heard they can't port but don't know if that part is true or not, plus I hate the Apple store.) and same thing...they're out of iPhones but taking orders for Monday. I drag myself to the Apple store, took one look at that ridiculous line and turn right back around. What the hell is worth waiting that long, seriously...it's a phone. Went back to AT&T upstairs and ordered it for Monday.
Now my problem with it is this...it cost $15 shipping to order it. And it's being delivered to the store. So if they have enough phones which they obviously do since they can be in the store by Monday, why don't they just send them to the friggin stores?? And why am I paying because you bastards ran out? That is complete bullshit, but very ingenious on their part to get more money.

So I am painting at the apartment today and redoing a tile coutner and I needed to be able to use the net on the laptop as the iphone is redic for looking stuff up rapidly - so I switch back to the at&t tilt so that I could tether. I noticed it had cut, copy, paste, tether, flash, 3G and a gps, lol. I think i ma back to that phone at least for today. It shoudl liven up my journal a bit.

I'll settle for chuckles any day. Just have to mosey down to the vending machines.
Come to think of it, they need to sell these in vending machines instead. I think that already do that at airports.

The new iphone firmware 2.0 with AIMCategory: mobile
Finally, the iphone natively has AOL instant messenger app which by the way is free. This I imagine will make it a big seller for a lot of people.
You can get the new firmware here but you will need itunes 7.7 to activate your phone. I got it using system update on my mac.
work
Nice, it also does exchnage mail, calendar, etc.

Hey- I see myself on there! Yay!!
Hey- I see myself on there! Yay!!
I think that crazy rain my have been what killed my camera. I took some pictures when I got so I figured it was fine and then later in the night I went to take another one and my screen doesn't work and my camera and computer won't sink up so now I get to look into getting it fixed. Oh yeah back to the rain it was kinda funny this one black guy yelled everyone calm down as people flew off the street, it was almost hurricane like at the start, it was pretty crazy. I just hope the rain stops and it gets nice so I can enjoy my time back down there I have some tickets to use.
That is somehow scary...
Ya it was so rainy. I must confess that I stole a plastic bag from a recycling bin during the hurricane like part of the downpor in order to save the iphones and (e:brit)'s phone from total destruction as we were soaked.
If I ate sea food that might be pretty good, hope you had a good time and missed the downpour, and if you go back hope it is nice and not rainy.
