This thing scares me so much that it requires its own thread. The sad part is someone would try making this.

And I still will not get a cell-phone.

Yes, and I'll defend myself to the end, or at least a gun/cell phone.

Also, 3000th post! Again.

Doesn't feel as special the second time.

Steve Jobs needs to stop defying the laws of physics. It has 14 hours of battery life and is probably about the size of the original iPod's battery which only provided like 8 hours. HOW??? This isn't possible!!!

I'll be right there by your side. 27 years old, a career professional (so far) and not a mobile phone to my name. There are other things I'd rather waste my money on.

Apple rocks. Seriously.

I just got the mighty mouse from them, and it feels dirty yet so so good. Touching the middle button gives me the wickedest guilty pleasures.

Heeey. Don't knock it! :)

It's more of a 5-button mouse, really. Scroll clicks, it has two buttons at the top (though you can't see them - noice!), and the bottom sides have analog (i think) control. You cynics you! Wait till you see it in action in Expose - you'll have clickgasms. :)

It is.

The battery doesn't have much more capacity than before, it is just being used more efficiently.
When you can't raise performance by improving something any more, you improve the way you use it for efficiency.

I hate Macs and their weird mouses.. mice...

And the cell phone thing is true. I don't need a video game console/internet browser/messenger/mp3 player/flash light/stop watch/calculator/camera/photo album/picture maker/video camera that has the ability to be a phone, that fits in my pocket AND vibrates!

My cell phone is one of the old ones. where the ringers sounds like an out of tune, crappy midi file. I have games which I rarely play, and a stop watch and calculator that has no real use. I use my phone to call people.... thats it. and on top of that, I only have 200 minutes. so I can tell people where i'm going and to meet me there... but thats it.

Cell phones are so over rated.... I wish I had a cool one.
I'm glad 90's style forum signatures don't exist anymore.

Meep.

One more thing that annoys me is that phones nowadays don't have the de facto super-conventional "bring-bring" ring tone! You have the option between all of Beethoven's freakin symphonies, and the latest chart hits and a set of that annoying frog's song, but no plain ringtone! It's insane.

And poo on your Mac mice-hate! I swear, it feels so wrong yet so right. The scroll is mounted loosely, so it twirls with your fingers when you fiddle with it. It feels so organic.
