Post 3.0 digestion
Now we’ve all seen 50 iPhone 3.0 posts in our RSS feeds what’s really going to happen? Will Touch users pay 10$ for the upgrade? Will iPhone normobs care? The 1.5 hour video is available online and other than the slowness it’s completely bearable and interesting in more ways than a 4 line blog post could articulate. No background apps? That’s OK.

June, please visit me
Lets pretend Android 2.0 and iPhone 3.0 are due in June. What features will the mobs rabble about this spring? Well I do not care. What features do I want?

S60 software I bought
This is my short list but it’s a significant amount of cash. I rely on all of these on a daily basis. joikuspot premium, X-plore, wirelessIRC, profimail 3, Phone Guardian 3, QuickOffice Premier 5 What am I missing? FYI - I’ve yet to find one app I thought I needed to buy on the Touch 2G. Any advice?
