Must be nice to be independently wealthy. :sweat: :sweat:


hahaahha independently wealthy.. yeah right.
i did not indulge myself with a new phone for the past 2 years. I'm still stuck with my nokia 7610. i also did not purchase a new iPod last year. so if anything, i'm technologically deprived. :)

I attended the Swearing-In Ceremony or Inauguration of a New York State Assembly woman. Her name is Ellen Young. She will serve up in Albany, NY, our state's capital. It was historic, in that she is the first Asian-American woman in NY state to hold that position. The ceremony was held in an auditorium in the Flushing Library. The place was packed! They had to use an overflow room. There were many congratulatory speeches by well known NY politicians. She came to the USA as an immigrant from Taiwan at the age of 25. She is a single Mom. Her 87 year old father was in attendance as well as her mother, daughter and brother were at the ceremony. It was very exciting to witness a positive change in our NY state political history. :victory:


That's awesome, senpai! Now we just gotta work on a female president, eh? :thumbsup:

with regards to the iPhone, I am seriously bent on purchasing that piece of technology trash :)


Me too. I've been hankering for a new cell for three years now. I didn't see the revealing of the new iphone, but I'm sure it's grand. I'm an apple fan. . :mrgreen:

@B-san: CONGRATS! New wheel looks smexy.

My sentiments exactly. :bleh:

There'd be more fanfare if Apple sold something that was cost-friendly to consumers.


i know you're a apple hater, but you have to look at it objectively. a top line Treo is $400 already, tack on a $200 ipod that you would've gotten seperately and you have a good price point. For someone that needs a phone that's capable of doing what its offering, that's a good deal. judging from your recent cellphone foray, you're not in the target market and thus poo-poo it even more.

of course, you'll probably sh*t on it anyways, so why do i bother explaining a market you have no interest nor need for. Kenji at least has a semi-valid point, but then again, the US is way behind the rest of the smart/cellphone world. By the time we move to all 3g, the rest of the world will be on 5g.

It's an OEM (stock) wheel.

The dealer wanted $250 bucks for the thing... I bought it online for $160.

It cost me another $20 to have it mounted and balanced, but I'm still ahead and I didn't add to the dealer's donut/coffee fund. :victory:

More like a Steve Jobs hater.

Doesn't help when the VP of our company extols the "virtues" of the Apple over the PC over and over again: it's all fine and dandy, but in the world that we work in (High Tech/Aerospace) the PC rules 24/7, 365/366 days a week.

You're right.

I'm a pragmatist, and I'm not on Apple's radar.

maybe you can use your High Tech/Aerospace PC to email Bill and ask him how many days are in a week.
