If I hadn't needed the money from selling it, I would still be using it today..connecting to the internet remotely, scheduling stuff, etc. I don't know why everyone makes a big deal about this. The technology has been around for ages and like it's really so hard to carry an ipod and your cell phone, which combined are capable of doing the same thing. Or you could have a cell/mp3 player/internet phone like me. I really don't see the fuss or need to buy yet another electronic gadget.

I will stick with my $20 teeny portable radio. - 16 GB is a bit small, but that doesn't bother me. I never had the urge to sit down and put every cd I own on my current mp3 player anyway. I will keep only the newest music I download on the Touch. There's really no reason for me to have every album I listened to since 1993 on my ipod. - I'm sure there will be bugs with the Touches, but like you said, they should be worked out by the time I buy one, months from now. - There's always a lot of criticism surrounding new products. One person's negative opinion or experience really means nothing to me. Mostly I'm just excited I'll be able to be online anywhere I am without paying a huge bill. This will be the first Apple product I own, and I'm buying it because it's the first thing like it on the market. I'm amazed with Apple's ability to continuously produce new products that really have little or no competition.

He has all his lines wrapped up in other ones for various reasons, which leads the whole company open to vulnerability. I'll show it you later.
