If anyone out there has been living on another planet for the last two or three months, you may not be aware that we are little more than two months away from the launch of what is destined to be the world’s biggest cell phone fest ever, with the unveiling of the “OhMyGodIHaveToHaveOne” iPhone. That’s why I was intrigued by the news today that Apple has just sold its 100 millionth iPod in a little more than five years. Reading the overly fawning PR release put out by Apple’s in-house Goebbels menschen, all trained to worship at the “Church of Steve,” I was somewhat underwhelmed to read the quotes of such highly remunerated Apple Panderers as Mary J. Blige and seven times Tour de France “I never did a Floyd Landis” specialist, Lance Armstrong, both going on ad nauseum about how their life has been changed forever, thanks to the therapeutic powers of the iPod. You just know people with nothing else to look forward to in their lives are going to be standing in line for days to be the first on the block with a iPhone. Which when all is said and done, is still just a phone like the one they give you for free if you sign a contract with any supplier. Yeah, I know… It’s an iPhone… Worth every penny of the $600 lots of very dumb people are going to spring for it!

So I pay $600 for this iPhone. I go for a swim with it... And now it doesn't work!!!
