Wish I could get an iPhone 2.0

I wish I could get an iPhone 2.0 but like many places throughout the country, AT&T is not available. I live in North Dakota and the iPhone is unavailable. Like thousands of others, for some reason I watched the 24 hour live coverage on stickam.com via twitlive.tv and saw Leo Laporte and all of his friends including the great Woz (Steve Wozniak) one of the co-founders of the iPhone. 

I only watched a few hours of the coverage but it was really interesting, especially considering that it was all happening live and to find out about the news of how the sales were probably higher than expected or at least that’s what my impression was especially since their were problems for people activating their phones. It was said that you had to do it at the store but even I knew that was hogwash, since you can buy a phone on ebay and activate it home just by calling the carrier. It’s not like the cell phone stores have magical connections where cell phones are born or something. Come on!

Anyway it was also interesting to watch the live coverage and watch instantly as anyone who plugged their website on Leo’s show had their website crashed by everyone at once going to check it out. I was smart and started taking notes in Stickies (on the computer) and using del.icio.us to bookmark the pages (although the later didn’t work as well). 

I also made a personal goal to get 500 people following me on twitter.com and and I will be following at least that many people, I am now just over 150 or so and have a long way to go, so if you want, you can add me by going to twitter.com/djstangl

That’s all for now.
