Oh my, if this is the best designers can come up with, we’re all screwed.

Frickin pants with built in keyboard/mouse.  Remember, someone spent money making this.  (yanko design)

Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04 is released into the wild.

new iPhone beta (5A258f) bricked my iPhone.   I is not happy at the moment.

- Well that was a Pain the a$$, the direct update from the previous beta 3 fails miserably.    iTunes would see it and offer to restore it to 1.1.4, that also failed after about 10 minutes.  After finally reinstalling the previous beta, that worked.   But then the phone wouldn’t activate (unsupported OS, please update).  So we start over.  That didn’t appear to go well again, as it would get to one state in the Organize and say ‘waiting for phone’, only the last time a second instance of a phone appeared in the organize.  So I told that one to update as well while the other instance was ‘waiting’.  We’re back, but that process sucked completely.

I’m allowing iTunes to restore it (data) I hope that doesn’t jack it up.  The new OS contains two new apps/buttons.   iTunes and App store
