Because it's not getting enough free publicity...


Apple dropped a press release this morning promising far better iPhone battery life than it touted when unveiling the phone back in January. On a single charge, the iPhone will now let you talk for a full eight hours (the earlier estimate was five hours); you've also got six hours of Internet time, seven hours of video playback, and 24 hours of music. Standby time, meanwhile, is now "more than 10 days."

In addition, the release also says that "the entire top surface of iPhone, including its stunning 3.5-inch display, has been upgraded from plastic to optical-quality glass to achieve a superior level of scratch resistance and optical clarity." Susceptibility to scratching has been a long worry with the iPhone -- maybe this takes care of it?

I think my husband is the only guy that doesn't salivate over new gadgets like this. He still has the crappy cell phone that came FREE with our plan when we first signed up for TMobile 4 years ago. And he has no desire to get a new one.

He gets all worked up over outdoor stuff, like buying stuff for his mountain bike or buying a new tent for trips to the Boundary Waters.

First of Corky, you spelled your own name wrong, which shows how much of a CORKY you are!!

Second of all, don't you worry your pretty little head about the iPhone, you can't afford it. The real question is why haven't you entered the Rollins Rant contest yet? That's what I'd like to know.

Thank you.
