That's my first thought, too.

Mine too. That or a health issue. Seems like he would've said so if that was the case, though.

Why did he resign?

:9f:
Because "You'll Never Walk Alone" was not chosen? ;)

My iPod died last night. I've had that thing since 2005. I tried every solution I knew to fix it, including contacting Apple. Apple declined to fix it. I decided that if Apple wouldn't attempt to repair it for me, that it was time to get a new iPod.

I recalled that my Blackberry is ancient (4+ years old).

I also reasoned that a new iPhone is cheaper than a new iPod and a new Blackberry.

Therefore, this afternoon, I became the proud owner of an iPhone. Except for the stupid touch keyboard, I am having so much fun!

I got one for my new job just over a month ago at the $100 upgrade charge. Got a 2nd one on a new Verizon contract also for $100 for my office manager that she will use for about 6 months until the old job/business is phased out and then Joy will get that iPhone. I am quite satisfied so far. The keyboard is a bit "touchy" but I am getting used to it, even with my oversized thumbs :ymblushing: . Turn off as many apps as you can when not using them or your daily battery life will be <12 hours. Or, get a second battery.

Can you replace the battery on an iPhone? I don't think so, but not having one, I'm not positive. Too bad you both couldn't wait until Sept. to get the new iPhone 5 instead of the 4s, although the 4s is a nice machine.

My grandmother passed today, 11 days shy of her 103rd birthday. Ruth Gwendolyn was born Sept. 7, 1909. Finally at rest, eternally at peace.
