While I still enjoy doing the Gems, I want to delve into other areas of our blog and give myself a new column: Gadget Corner. Whenever a new must-have gadget comes out, I’ll give my unbiased and totally unqualified review of it. I say unqualified because I will never purchase or actually even use any of these gadgets. This brings us to Apple’s new iPhone.
Looking at iPhone, I’m a little uneasy. Where are the buttons? Why are there so many little pictures? Which end do I put to my mouth? Sure, it looks cool, but how do you use it? How do I call people? Can I play Snake?
I heard it plays music, too. Do I need headphones or do I just hold it to my head to listen? I hope I don’t have to hold it to my head, but if Atreyu or AFI are playing on it, I’ll do what it takes to hear them.
I also read a lot of people couldn’t get theirs activated. If I owned an iPhone, I’m sure I’d have this problem too. Either Apple or AT&T need to get it together. If I can’t turn on my iPhone, all I’m left with is an iPaperweight or an iWeapon.
I heard the internet doesn’t work well either. If you’re checking anything other than sports scores on your phone, you’re a nerd. Use your iPhone to pick up other nerd girls.
So, the iPhone has a lot of features, from what I understand. I still don’t think it’s enough. On future models, I’d like to see the following:
- cigarette lighter
- pocket knife
- Batman-style grappling hook kit
- taser
The iPhone is built as the ultimate portable multimedia tool, but why stop there? It can also be the premier hand-held crime fighting and self defense device. Apple could have partnered with Glock and made a superb device here, but they played it safe. Personally, I think they're missing out.

i'm typing this comment from my t-mobile sda.
My friend's girlfriend got one, it's actually pretty cool, but not worth 5 bills. I think if you had two of them, you could turn them into a deadly iNunchuck.
This blog blows.
If I ever had time to post stuff I would. Not trying to sound all busy and self-important like Stephen, just saying come mid-August I will start picking things back up. There's been tons of stuff to cover too, which sucks.
