I think Alexander Graham Bell is turning over in his grave...
Too much hype over a glorified cell phone. So you can watch a You Tube clip on it? Big deal -- I suppose watching someone else's miserable existence is a good escape from one's own miserable existence....
I think people need to disconnect from technology / the interwebnet / cell phones / iPods, and reconnect with real live people.
Yeah, I have a cell phone, and my company-issue Blackberry. But lately I find myself using both less and less. I also wind up taking it with me less and less (my personal phone -- I gotta take the stupid electronic lease from work with me everywhere I go).
This past weekend, Mrs. Z-man and I went to a B&B up in the mountains in New York state. There was absolutely no cell phone reception. What a wonderful thing!
I have an iPod as well, and use that primarily in my new truck, since it has a mini-stereo (3.5mm) connection for it, and sometimes at work, where there's too much noise around me. But at least I listen to decent music on it, produced by artists, instead of the crap that kids are listening to these days...
I guess I'm either an old fart, or just sick and tired of being so connected.
