Cult of Mac, 4:17 AM: “Reality Check: The iPhone’s Not Going to T-Mobile or Verizon Anytime Soon” Cult of Mac, 6:42 AM: “Report: Apple to Ship CDMA iPhone in Fourth Quarter” At this point, I’m rooting for the first story to be true, because if #2 is correct, I’m going to feel like a complete sucker for buying an AT&T-saddled… Read more »
Take a look at the above-the-fold front page of yesterday’s Denver Post: Do you think some headline writer, or editor responsible for page layout, was having a little fun at our “wannabe avenger” president’s expense? Heh.
Twitter: 600,000 iPhone pre-orders yesterday: http://bit.ly/bNbjlt | AT&T halts: http://bit.ly/dk0tUc | New ship date: July 14! http://bit.ly/cClgdT
Last night, I received a confirmation e-mail from AT&T — two of them, actually, one for my iPhone and one for Becky’s — titled “Your recent ATT order status.” They state: Dear Brendan Loy, Thank you for ordering iPhone 4 from AT&T.

I wasn’t looking for them, but I just happened to catch a glimpse of Venus and the crescent Moon from our newly built patio this evening. Beautiful. A closer view: Clearly, even the Heavens are celebrating Becky’s birthday. 🙂
It got rather badly buried Thursday, amid all the conference expansion and USC sanction tweets, but I still think this clip is really freakin’ funny: Teehee. Inflatable hover-fort.
