pwn3d. by a Lexus? Suck.
Feb 27th
So, Saturday I was taking a drive to Guitar Center in North Mass. I got onto the highway, and merged in with traffic – slowing down because the traffic ahead of me was stopped. I came to a stop, and a second later – SMASH! I took it in the rear by a Lexus. He was not looking, and admitted it. Looking over his left shoulder to find a window of opportunity to merge in as well. When he hit me, I shot forward, and turned (purposely) into the right guardrail to avoid colliding with the Honda in front of me.
I still hit the Honda, but only my left front corner into the read right of the number – spanking the muffler. I ended up on top of a small now bank and the guardrail. My KNEE! Ouch. I found plastic I did not know I had! And there was like $8 in change (thats where I left it!) all over the place. Including outside – weird. I am unsure how it got outside.
Rear bumper is gone, rear left chassis smashed in. Front looks like a pile of crap. I don’t think the Adjuster will total it. So I guess I wait for it to be fixed. Until then, it’s a rental’ing I will go.
Is the iPhone coming to T-Mobile?
Jul 22nd
Or is T-Mobile coming to Apple? A question you can ask yourself while in the john.
It is more plausible, and likely more feasible that the “other” GSM would acquire the rights to offer the iPhone. Not that is isn’t possible that Verizon could. But, ponder this:
To a certain extent, AT&T and T-Mobile’s networks are compatible. In the 1900 range, and 2100 (3G upload only on T-Mo). So, switching from at&t as a carrier to T-mobile will be less of a headache, than if it were a switch from at&t to Verizon (or vice-versa for that matter).
If and when the iPhone comes to Verizon, a switch to a GSM would require a new phone, OR some sort of courtesy deal from Apple – because in the end, the carriers are already offering good deals on the “greatest phone ever” for new customers.
With a “legal” carrier unlock, a GSM iPhone could work on T-Mobile, (EDGE), unless Apple decides to make a hexaband (what a great word) iPhone which would include all compatible GSM frequencies. The current iPhone 4 is pentaband.
So, ponder forward at the delight of the iPhone coming to every carrier. After all, if its coming to Verizon and T-Mobile, why not Sprint? Is it not Apple’s desire to rule the world? We will soon find out.
Android needs a fancy UI kill switch.

Yay for android. Boo for fancy UI’s from OCD OEM’s.
Please Google, require and enforce a killswitch for fancy oem UIs. Users should not need to root their phones to get away from motoblur, touchwiz and blablawiz.
