Apple

Thursday, January 11th, 2007

I’ve got lots of problems with Apple’s latest announcement, the iPhone.  I’m not going to mention any of them except for one.  The fact that it’s a cell phone is enough for me to hate it.  But I really don’t care that much about it, I just won’t buy one.  I’m surprised to find so much reaction to it.  It seems that our obsession with materialism has elevated to a new level.  Not only are we obsessed with goods, but we’re obsessed with their manufacturers, their outlook, their projected sales, and on and on.

I’m still thinking about buying a MacMini, I won’t let a little thing like a hugely expensive cell phone with an umpteen year contract bother me.
