@disinfectant: And it's broken too. The store is down in flames.

Apples store is hosed

Apples store is having major issues, getting tons of errors

4 more minutes! (maybe)

@Stevenk: But in a mirror...

@wAkO: Considering that the UPS driver was likely going to be in your area, his stopping at your house consumes much less gas than you getting in your car and driving to the Apple store.

@Jesse Kay: AT&T messes everything up, I'm waiting for the Apple pre-order.

@Hirobomb: A bunch of nerds staying up until the wee hours of the morning to pre-order an iPhone at the very first possible second? What could they be doing?

Hmm, guess I can stay up another 45 minutes. I guess one advantage of being on the west coast is that I'll be getting more sleep tonight than you east coasters! :p

How much do you want to bet that Apples "open standard" uses non-open standards that require Apple licensing fees?

@Jaredu: No disrespect intended, but while your ideas are noble, they just don't mesh with how the real world works. The whole argument is based on a bunch of IFs that just aren't going to happen. Utopias can't exist because human nature doesn't favor equality.

@Namarrgon: NASA is good, but we can't put all of the spending in one basket. Don't forget that everything NASA has done has potential military benefits so you get military spending without appearing to do so. NASA paved the way for ICBMs, spy satellites and all kinds of other goodies.

@Kaiser-Machead: Well, in that case, I'd hesitate to call my car a blutooth headset :p

@tineras: My car can make calls too, but I'd hardly call it a phone.

@Jaredu: Hah, I've had a similar discussion to this on a date once. The girl was on your side and apparently I'm the root of all evil.

@HeeroYuy01W: Somehow I have a feeling that the fire supression systems aren't very useful because the chances of surving being hit are probably pretty slim. In the case that an explosive round blows you to pieces or turns your plane into swiss cheese, it may not make much of a difference if you have 1 fire supression

@tineras: Yeah, but that's a tablet.
