my brother got an iphone, and i have to admit being skeptical, cause paulies got the cingular phone thats got all of the same features plus more, but the iphone was impressive, its simple, the screen is great, and you can use it as a phone too

See that's where the issue i have comes in, I have these things on the front of my phone, they are "numbers" they conveniently place them in order 1, 2, 3, etc, etc.... now let's say I want to call someone (yea i know, i know, i should be taking really low quality photos, sending them to my friends at 10 cents each so they can guess what the **** it is a photo of) anyhow, when i want to call someone, i don't have to press anything, i just press these "numbers" then i hit one button and sometimes it starts to ring, other times att tells me the network is busy, but that's a whole other issue. to make a call, i press a total of 8 buttons.

8 buttons? We've gotta dial the area code for local numbers even, so I'm 11.



I use the super high tech phone book in mine though, so I just have to remember their name and scroll down the list.

It's not like I even know more than 9 people, so I could easily use the 1-touch speed dial numbers on my antique phone, if only I took the time to program them.

When you're done with that, you might want to set the clock on your Betamax.

I listened to a 33-1/3 RPM vinyl record just today. On my turntable! Ha!



But yeah, It's connected to a solid-state amp.
