...does this make you want an iphone more or less?

Anyhow this article is more than just apple and ex taliban ambassadors, but it was a point of interest.

Everything Apple touches is auto-shit.

Bill Gate's wife wants an iPod but Bill doesn't allow them in their home.  lulz

What's funny is that his objection probably has everything to do with protecting his image and not wanting to give Apple any publicity.  His wife probably made this public out of spite.  I sense some new iPod commercials.

Now that's a good fucking endorsement.

The iPhone is lovely. No questions asked.

"It's easy and modern and I love it," Zaeef said as he pinched and pulled his fingers across the iPhone's touch screen last week. "This is necessary in the world today. People want to progress."

I'm on my 3rd handset, but i still love the thing. The first stopped making or receiving calls, and the ringer on/off switch on the side fell off the second. I took them back to the store and walked away with new handsets within minutes, no ID required or anything. Apple's customer service is impressive if nothing else.
