In case anyone out there has been on the Space Station for the last few months... Tomorrow is "IPhone Day!" Yeah... King Steve will finally let the great unwashed masses of Apple Freaks get their sweaty mitts on a $600 iPhone... Oh, and the AT&T service will cost you another $100 per month... But who cares. You'll be the first on your block with an iPhone, making all your pals sick with envy for about a week. By which time they'll all have one. I read somewhere the other day that there are already more than 1000 iPhone accessories on the market, from Gucci carrying bags to shoulder straps... But, 1000. How many ways can you gussy the thing up? Funny to read that before you can use the pocket miracle (not that anyone is going to keep it in their pocket when you can confound the hoi polloi by having it stitched to your ear 24/7) you actually have to sit through a twenty minute tutorial on Apple's web site. I still say that a touch type screen is a bummer, particularly for all those messaging freaks out there. You cant beat the tactile feeling of a real keyboard... That's what killed IBM"s PC Junior, remember... Oh, forgot, that was back in the dark ages of the mid-eighties!

When Steve said "Hand held" he wasn't referring to King Kong!
