The date line is a little off; today is Thursday Sept 6th, 2007 as Joanne said!
Your Finnish and typing skills never cease to amaze me.
Incredible. I live in Hamburg, and it is always amazing to realize that Reeperbahn actually exists during daylight hours. I think I\’ve seen that… two… or maybe three times, including this video.
Why, Mr. Dixon, I believe I heard a challenge being issued….
What is the deal with Finland? For years I have heard stories about how repressed the Finns are, that they travel to places like St. Petersburg to get drunk and rowdy because doing so at home is just not possible. And then I see TV snippets like that one. (Oh, and thanks for burning that image into my brain for the rest of the day.)
I need to know what Apple is planning on doing about all the iphone customers who paid %33 too much since Joanne interviewed them standing in line to do so. Or, conversely, what those customers think.
Early adopters (should) know the pain! Compare the PC, DVD, MP3 player, USB memory stick, digi-cam, cell phone etc you bought last week with their respective prices this week. It is the price of living in the age of consumerism.
The iPhone pain just seems huge because of all the hype pumped out prior to its launch. I didn\’t get one, don\’t plan on it even if it can now be unlocked, and still have a good standard of living. It\’s a personal choice.
Or did you want to see their reactions so you can laugh at their misery - like looking at a good car wreck?!
I just invented the iLife! Just turn it on, go to the beach or take a nap, and it\’ll fill in for you for as long as the battery lasts! I\’ll be taking pre-orders beginning today… only $999.50. Just call 123-456-7890 and give credit card info ;-)
-s
Oh oh oh! I\’m first in line - I want one! Doh!
Say… I just called 123-456-7890 (just curious) and got Santa Clause!!!!
True but Apple usually adds features and functionality rather than lowering price. So what is Apple saying, \”sorry, we won\’t be adding needed features for a while, so here is a price cut?\” Or, \”oops we\’re not as special as we thought this time so we have to go into price competition?\” Or, \”our stock is too high so we have to scare our stockholders?\”
I think they are trying to head something off, or stay in the short term memory of potential buyers, rather than wait a while longer.
Maybe early iphone buyers have some valid opinions.
Here is more on how early iPhone adopters think.
Didn\’t know Neo Sporen was invented in Denmark.
Squeeze the kid a little harder & he\’ll scream plenty loud.
Does a Ford Escort actually go 140 mph, dumb ass kid.
Hamburg is a very sexy place, too sexy for your hat, too sexy for…I saw it on their wideo!
I ROCK THE BOOM BABY!
later people
Speaking of criminals…
…or was that inmates?
Mash-up Mike Dixon better watch out!!
Huh?
By jove I think you got it mate, best one yet!
2 thumbs up!
what\’s Joanne doing with the knife?
Hey Kam, did you go to a MAC camp this summer or somethin\’?
Your digital prowess has increased exponentially over the months…watch out Dixon, Kam is on the move.
Thanks my man-B

& mash-up Mike is way far ahead of me!
(Am I moving, I\’m not moving, am I?)
Not to bring anyone down, but the Justice Department just torpedoed Net Neutrality.

RIP
Luciano Pavarotti (October 12, 1935 – September 6, 2007) was an Italian tenor and one of the most popular contemporary vocal performers in the world of opera and across multiple musical genres. Known for his televised concerts, and as one of the Three Tenors, Pavarotti was also noted for his award-winning charity work for raising money on behalf of refugees and the Red Cross.

The most incredible operatic tenor of the last century
and none of the 10 year olds who peruse Rocketboom know dick about him.
A sad day for the arts in general. A master has been lost.
Ok…go back to what you were doing..britney et al. are waiting for you.
For those who are somewhat curious
