Yeah they're the business eh bro. Loving the internet access, bit tricky to get used to (zooming etc) but pretty cool. The 8GB one is about $400 I think.

Thanks for taking the time to read this rant.

You can also download the iPhone 2 software update for the iPod Touch from within iTunes (costs $13.99, I think) and then you have access to all the applications in the iTunes AppStore; a good proportion of which are free.

The software update also gives you:

Scientific calculator (rotate to landscape to see it)
Improved typing response
Ability to push sync with MS Exchange servers via ActiveSync

Available applications include such useful ones as the iBeer (virtual beer) and the iSabre, that makes lightsaber noises as you wave it around. Plus some cool racing games you can steer by tilting the iPhone from side to side.

Yep. Light Sabre. You even get to choose the colour.

Better on the iPhone because of the built-in speaker, but the sounds do come through the headphones on an iPod Touch.

After I marveled at how nifty that was, I realized it was exactly what I need - another fucking remote control.

I need another remote controller because I lost mine for the mac.

What was the name of the app?

we all have little things that we spend money on that could be spent better on kids in Africa.

You spend $30 on a tank of gas for a afternoon out going for a ride - that could feed a kid for a month according to the TV and the fundraisers who call each dinner time.

Its a bit of a sad argument.
