And, my oh my, how far Obi Wan Kenobi has fallen since Emperor Obama organized the First Galactic Empire....

Interesting, but only because I don't believe in hairdryers.

I've heard about this. This is the new e-reader for porn only, it's called the Nook-e.

I would think that you would be laughed at nearly incessantly while wearing these, making your ride most unpleasant. No, but thanks for asking.

@Elvin Rivera: The Caddy that Zigs...all the way to the scene of the breakdown.

Too bad the a-holes who must show us their junk have to ruin cool ideas like this one. I never tried iChatr, but only because of the absolute certainty that it would be nothing but a swordfighting Roulette wheel. Thanks again, a-holes.

Music was painful, but the demonstration of shallow depth-of-field was pretty cool, if WAY overdone. And a Canon EF 50mm f1.8 lens is only about $100, so it could be done rather cheaply.

@Roberto G.: The threesome that you refer to is not novel;what is, however, was that the GUYS have racks in this particular instance. Novel, indeed, but also probably out there, somewhere, for someone to enjoy.

@Roberto G.: Interesting that in this internet picture, it's the guys with the nice racks instead of the lady...but I'm sure that's been done before as well.

@geekymitch: Thank you for your clarity. I agree completely, and I cannot see how this decision by Apple is in any way unfair. Like your phone? Keep it, and here's a free bumper. Hate your phone? Bring it back. Well done.

@mgramos: Semi likes your analogy, while I think it's a stretch. One is a life-and-death design flaw based on aesthetics that cannot be permanently rectified by any means other than a tear-down and redesign, the other is an inconvenient design flaw that can be rectified by a simple, nearly ubiquitous accessory. It's…

I guess if I'm going with a retro console, I'd just as soon get an original-looking console(s) and design the room in an 80's vibe; I'd put on my Member's Only jacket and skinny leather tie, and crank up some Motley Crue, circa 1983, on my dual-cassette Hi-Fi stereo. But that's just me.

Looking back at past "innovations" from the minds of men, ideas and breakthroughs such as fire, metalwork, electricity and hair gel...yeah, I guess it was all driven by sex.

@BabylonAndOn: My AT&T store, and the rebate is/was only at the store, had a $100 rebate IF you chose the monthly fee plan, which you could then cancel once the rebate is/was issued, which I plan to do.

@Greetings. I am Wu.: Hardware issue that CAN cause reception problems. *snap* (sound as Unsilent Minority snaps on case)....Issue solved.

@LoganR: Bought a clear, superthin-but-flexible polycarbonate case for my iPhone4 on eBay for $7 delivered. Damn near invisible, added no bulk, it's perfect. Who the hell needs to spend $30?! Suckers, just like you said, brother.

@peesauce: I don't think buying a case, which is a good idea regardless of which smartphone you buy, constitutes "fixing it yourself".

I love my iPhone, and my wife loves her iPhone. We had service with Verizon for the last 5 years prior to switching to AT&T in May (had iPhone 3GS for about a month when they offered me an even trade-in for the iPhone 4, less a $15 restock fee) and am completely happy with it. Antenna issue is a non-issue for us, as…
