Someone Is Selling 15 Minutes With The iphone In India


This is the strangest way I've ever seen anyone make a buck off of the iphone yet. Aswin R., a India journalist found this gem of someone selling 'touching time' with an iphone.

Yup! You heard right!

Not selling the iphone, but selling 15 minutes to "see/touch/feel" the iphone, of course all under supervision. Not sure what the end result would be for people who paid to do this, perhaps they feel they will be blessed by touching the Jesus phone. Anyway, it's 500 rupees, which is about 12 US dollars and a total ripoff.

Thanks Gizmodo for this one.

Massive Set Up For World of Warcraft


This is what you get when you take a good game, and loose it on the world full of nerds who have lots of money and to much time on their hands.

This setup is designed to control 46 World of Warcraft accounts by only two geeks (one surprisingly is the girlfriend of the other geek). There are 47 PCs, mostly of Shuttles, Small form factors, and QPack with most of them with no hard drives to cut down on power consumption and heat.

I know that there are a lot of WoW fans out there, but this is taking it to a level........ Ah...never mind! I just remembered who I'm talking to.

No iphone for You!!!


It looks like even the elite, or the beautiful people can't get their hands on the iphone before anyone else does.

High level executives and some movie stars who are after the Jesus phone will have to wait in line with the commoners. What I find funny is that even AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson had to wait until March to get his hands on one. Maurice Coffey who is a marketing director at Procter & Gamble said that he is going to show up early on June 29th, but also said "I'm not camping out. I'm too old for that."

I wonder if this is Apple's way of thumbing their noses at 'the man', or if they really don't have enough to go around, I'd like to think the former.
