Why'd you CLICK ON IT if it's so stupid??? It's clearly titled. I didn't tell you to come in here for hot pictures of naked women. I asked a question and you CHOSE to click on it, waste your time by reading it, probably the replies too, and then try some internet snark with your little insult.
I'd rather waste bandwidth than my own personal time. Get out if you don't like my question. GO!

I liked the question. It's a fun question and there have been threads like this in the past. 😉

I have four iPhones synching to the same iTunes account so therefore we name each phone for the person using it. Obviously. 😀
Thank you! And exactly!
Personally I find this a MUCH more refreshing light-hearted topic than the POINTLESS "Should I get black or white iPhone! I can't deciiiide!" topics 20x a day. 🙄

NOw I call it "The Titanic" so with I plug it into iTunes it says "The Titanic is Syncing." Corny I know.

Yeah, I guess I'm leaning towards the simple "iPhone" too, although that won't stop me from trying to think of other funny things I can put in front of the word "syncing".
