Catching Up With
September 7th, 2005p>If you know me, you’re probably wondering why I’m not posting more about what’s going on lately. Mainly, it’s that I’m busy getting caught up with freelance work. it’s not that I’m avoiding you, so just don’t take it personally. Once I get my plate cleared, I’ll get my blog caught up with my life. But until then, here’s some random bits:
The Coming iTunes Phone
I think today is the big day when Motorola and Apple are to announce the "iTunes Phone". While I’m curious as hell, I can’t imagine getting too excited about it. Especially since Think Secret says that the phone is only going to have capacities of 256MB and 512MB, and Cingular will be the only carrier for launch. Maybe I’ll just spend one of my iPod class action rebates on a refurbed shuffle, and stick with my SonyEricsson T68i and TMobile.
Music, Music, and more Music
