| From the article: "
So frustrating. I got Lion set up and immediately lost my email on my droid. I constantly got an error message that I my user name and password had not been entered correctly. After days of annoyance, I finally got my droid and my iCloud mail working together. And it wasn't anything in the droid settings. Actually, it wasn't anything in iCloud either. " |
Steve Jobs led a perfect life, with this one exception.

Do you know what's on your cellphone? They do!

| From the article: " The MP3 fools the ear by eliminating the least essential parts of a music file?To create MP3 [Karl-Heinz] Brandenberg had to appreciate how the human ear perceives sound.

I was electrified. I knew it would be nearly impossible to compress this warm a cappella voice. " |
If true, it is a great story!

| From the article: " After his third iPhone 3G continued to cut him off in the middle of his conversations, Ryan Shaw had seen enough. "The phone was a disappointment from the standpoint that it couldn't maintain a consistent connection with the 3G network...All the other features were fantastic," said Shaw, a sales professional living in a Cleveland suburb. But those other features weren't enough to prevent him from returning to Verizon and the BlackBerry after deciding the hassle just wasn't worth it. " |

| From the article: " I was talking to a telecom manager of a large U.S.-based multinational company recently who lamented the fact that worldwide data roaming charges are too steep and unpredictable to justify his business using the multimedia-centric iPhone as an enterprise device. Executives in his organization recently took some complimentary iPhone 3Gs overseas and returned to discover data-usage bills of $4,000 to $5,000 apiece. " |
Hardly limited to iPhones, but data charges can really add up!
