I would, more than anything, love to have a bluetooth cat!

I also believe that it is EasterN District, not Easter District.

I was actually hesitant about the pre due to the screen size. After consideration though, the fact the the screen is smaller means I can easily put it in my pocket and manipulate it with one hand. The iphone is just too big to do that well.
I was also concerned about the keyboard but it is VERY easy to use. Surprisingly so.
As for the sharp edges. That's just stupid and reveals you to be incredibly trite.

I've noticed a tremendous increase in speed. Also, there are some subtle changes with gestures. When you throw away a card, you don't have to throw it as far, same thing for left to right and others.
When I got up this morning, I had forgotten that I'd updated the phone. The speed amazed me. They clearly streamlines some code or something like that.

I am loving my pre more and more.

I see a lot of crap about Flash being buggy for made for animated ads as well as why apple if rejecting flash.
1st) Those buggy, slow moving memory heavy flash sites are so because they were coded poorly. Flash can be written rock solidly, and very efficiently. It's all of those 'I know flash' people ripping off clients when they only 'know ABOUT flash'
2nd) Flash does not work on the iphone because of the bs, locked down, control freak nature or the sandboxed (x2) architecture of the iphone. It is not that apple WILL NOT accept flash it is that it just will not work on the iphone due to forced isolation of each app from the hardware and flash needs comprehensive access to that hardware. It's apples crappy design that prevents it. It's the same reason cut&paste took so long, they had to figure out a way around their own crappy design.
As for the 'flash sucks because it is just for ads' people, I say browsers suck. I mean they are just for html and flash which is just for ads!
oh yeah, Apple is crap.

ACTUALLY-
It is due to the way in which the iphone is engineered and the way that flash works. Apple won't let anything out of it's tied down, crippled, security sandbox. Flash needs access to some system resources the apple will not give up.

So, the iphone will NEVER be able to run flash unless apple loosens their sphincter a bit. This is also part of the reason cut and paste took so long and you'll have a long time waiting for multi tasking.

haha, I said sphincter :)

"the wireless card was designed to send, not receive" - Holy crap! They actually used that nonesense?!?! Did people actually believe it? How can they look at themselves in the mirror??
Wow. Just, wow!

Do you guys really think that the Financial Accounting Standards Board has ANYTHING to do with what or how much apple charges for anything? Seriously? Also since when does engadget report of accounting methodologies? Oh wait, it relates to apple in some way, never mind.
But seriously guys, this only effects their stock. You're not going to benefit from any accounting changes.
Sad.

wait! It sounds like some people are saying that apple NEEDS to charge for updates for the ipod due to accounting methodology whereas they do their accounting differently for the iphone in order to offer free updates. Is this what is being said? On the off chance it is, i doubt it but just in case, that is absolute horsesh*t. They charge for what they can get away with charging for and don't charge for things that would result in too big of a black lash. Very simple really.

Why the hell is m4rkus Highly Ranked?? I think it really sheds light on the itard mentality. No offense m4rkus, I'm glad you've not had any problems but it's just a fact, not some keen insight or clever double entendre.
I've got a very regular digestive track, never constipated. Do I get highly ranked now?? Maybe it has something to do with blind obedience instead? Weirdos.
