Congratulations to Arn on his interview about the rumored iPhone on "On the Money" on CNBC.

Way to represent the Mac/Apple user community.

Thanks,

I wish I had a Tivo to record it. Arn and the CEO (?) of LoopRumors were on CNBC discussing the iPhone rumors. I guess it was about 7:05pm to 7:10pm eastern time.

Thats pretty cool. Did anyone Tivo it/etc?

I hope it gets posted online.

Don't look directly at arn in the face 'cause it'll burn your retinas into the back of your skull.

I missed it, but I'm kinda glad.

I mean, if Arn weren't an abstraction, I'm not sure I could go on.

But seriously -- Arn. Congrats on the interview. Bet you never thought this site would bring you -- and all of us -- where it has.

Yeah, that's one of the reasons why I find this so surprising! But as I said, this is great - I'd love to see the footage!

I respect him a lot more for that. A "hey! I was on TV!" attitude would have felt a little out of place. That said, it would have been a shame if no one had spotted the segment though. Thanks to longofest for posting the story. It's really nice to finally put a face on the founder of my favorite website and online community. Keep up the good work, Arn!

raggedjimmi · Nov 16, 2006, 09:50 PM

Nice one, Arn

tech4all · Nov 16, 2006, 09:54 PM

That was pretty cool to see arn on TV (well website). Just goes to show you how good this site really is!

Cooknn · Nov 16, 2006, 10:40 PM

Arn handled that guy well! Nice job buddy. You make us proud

ero87 · Nov 16, 2006, 10:41 PM

haha yeah, the looprumors guy had NOTHING to say...

"two hands on a touch-screen at once!" ...i guess he's reffering to that random patent that was sortof connected to apple...

Arn kicked butt though

Wanna know why the guy was a jerk?

That is so true... if there was a top 3 list of companies that publicly acknowledge that they swing from Bill Gates' nard sack, cnbc would be one of them.

(cnet would follow closely behind)

lol, totally true. The irony of watching this story about Apple on an msn feed was not lost on me.

sachamun · Nov 17, 2006, 03:15 AM

congrats...

why did the interviewer give the other guy such a grilling? they were all just talking tech right? it sounded like they were negotiating a ceasefire or something!

"Can I finish?"

count chocula · Nov 17, 2006, 04:19 PM

yay arn!

irmongoose · Nov 16, 2006, 09:55 PM

Hey, great job there... that jerk of an interviewer really got to the LoopRumors guy but you kept your cool. Congratulations, arn, that was quite awesome!
