I just posted the following as a comment on a blog as to why I already purchased the iPhone 3G. I thought it might be appropriate to share on my blog as well. Enjoy.

I’ll try to keep this short and simple, but don’t be surprised if you get a short novel. I am a little offended that the beginning of this post [original blog linked above] begins with such bias as to say that if Steve Jobs branded a sandwich with the Apple logo a line would form to buy it. Give most Apple “fanboys” a little more credit than that.

I personally have an Apple logo tattoo (for the letter A in my wife’s name as she converted me to Apple). I also have a Burton tattoo on my foot. Why are both of my tattoos commercial companies? Read the rest of this entry »

I’m at the Apple store in Gilbert, AZ standing for more than an hour now. It just barely started pouring and doesn’t show any sign of letting up.

So, while I forgot my chair, at least I remembered Katie’s umbrella and my Burton hoodie. Although it is really humid so I may lose the hoodie asap ;)

And a cricket just crawled up my chest. WOOT for lines

However, I hope to have a white iPhone 3G to show for it as I’m 9th in line.

So much for working this morning while I wait :(

I have a ton of stuff to blog about still, but no time right now. My wishlist: iPhone 3G, new Mac Book Pros, otherwise I’m sure I’ll love whatever I get ;) So here’s the link to the live WWDC keynote coverage I’ll be watching as much as possible (within work limitations):

And the end result that most matters:
