urgh! Not lookin too hot for the new iphone let alone their operating system. I think they took the lululemon design playbook to heart in their sheer design in the body...cheaped out to the point of the "bendgate" similar to the cheaping out lululemon did on their yoga pants...loved them....but they cheaped out so bad ...they were sooo sheer ...they were see-through..I think it a fabulous fashion trend...sadly it spelled the fall of the company...,

Speaking of hot....
and for a laugh...the hoax of hoaxes....which some have taken seriously....which again says sooooo much.

wow...
Anywho just on the bendable Gumby-phone and the small (!) oopsie with the operating system...less than that buried BB...which they are still trying to come back from...(speaking of which ...MY actual passport is most certainly not as big as what they are showing off. )
Sure Apple's got a few pennies tucked away in a sock...but...
All told...could it be? the precursor?..the straw that broke the Jobs's back?...is it possible?...is Applegeddon on the horizon?

I know eh?
And ya the reviews back home here are coming in on the new BB
and I ALMOST like the size if it weren't so... square.
Thing is....the pundits are punditting on the fact BB is gambling on the desire for the device by the business driven ...but the critics here...are saying it won't work since the direction the public and manufacturers has been going for awhile now....in the opposite direction...thin and narrow. sigh...BB back in the day wasn't so bad...before it's 1st fall...I don't think this literal square... is a game changer...too big for the pocket...too late on the field...the size of it ..heck it makes one of my n800 look tiny.
