d is for definitely! man it's gorgeous and the ui is just killer. man, we should talk online sometime about a million things from me now owning part of the original "fewer moving parts" artwork sketches to you helping me get a job driving a bus so i can start my life over in the beautiful minneapolis snow. you could even play my pinball machine as much as you wanted! long live the iphone (stupid name, though imo).

oh i see you're reading microserfs. what a coincidence, so i am i. i needed some coupland in my life lately, so i re read jpod and am about to finish this. you know i have the cassette audiobook of microserfs read by none other than chandler from friends. it's abridged, but i love it. i've got mp3s of it if you want them. i guess coupland has a movie out now in canada that he wrote. "everything is green" or something like that.

yeah it wasn't as fun as jpod, but that's probably because it's not 2006 anymore. i like coupland, but something about him annoys me.

I think the beauty of coupland is that he annoys you. girlfriend in a coma, elenor rigby, hey nostradamas, all families are psycotic are all awesome.
as for the phone... freaking cool, but I've always gone with the free phone with the plan, i don't think I can switch over...

how is $500 for just an mp3 player reasonable but not $500 for mp3 player that has wi-fi, bluetooth, roaming internet, location awarness, and pda features?
i wonder what the battery life is. doesn't sound like you can easily replace the battery or the flash drive.

Whoever said $500 for a MP3 player was reasonable?

"i like coupland, but something about him annoys me."
I know what you mean, but could this be just because he wrote himself into JPod and made his character a jerk?

Ha! That was great. It could have something to do with it, but i think I had the feeling before that. It's the same feeling I get from Palanuik and Eggers. It's just a small aspect.
