The owner of this particular phone is going to lose it in about a month unless a leash is added.

It gets in your blood, I guess. If it isn’t lost it will join the Betamax VCR in his storage shed.

That little cell phone screen is neat and all, but sometimes I need the Internet somewhere in the boondocks to look at something that simply isn’t doable with a cell phone screen. With my Sprint smartphone I just hit the picture of the phone on my laptop, it fires up Bluetooth to my phone, and I’m on the Internet shortly thereafter to look up what I need to look up in a more easy fashion than can be done on a 280×280 pixel screen. With the iPhone… eh. It’s pretty, but it doesn’t do what I need.
