Always great coverage here. Think I'll try the iPhone version this year. Twitter's a great addition for people on the go (though it's likely to go down due to traffic).

This is going to be the LONGEST WEEKEND EVER in anticipation, which is fine by me because I'm going home to see my girlfriend and every time I do that the days fly by...would be great to slow it down. I think she's starting to get sick of me talking about it though.

NEW IPHONE AHHHHHHHHH!!!!

I still think that there is going to be one mind-blowing revelation that none of us had even considered. The first iPhone pretty much blew everything out of the water and surpassed most people's expectations in several areas. I know it did for me.

What to eat?

I have all of Monday blocked off. My ritual is to do NO work and stay home all day...

I have MacRumorsLive (of course) ready to go...

And I make myself a super-fresh deli sandwhich. I'm talking MAJOR eats. I think Monday I am going to go with roast beef cooked medium-well, topped with swiss, cole slaw, pickles. Also, a red-bull to kick my apple-love-shivers into space, and a pile of cookies.

If you have a sandwich idea that is extreme, let me know, I always go with the half pound of roast beef but need to try something new.

Credit card space has also been cleared for iPhone2 purchace, hope you all have space too!

:) :)

Once upon a time, the NFL Draft was nothing. Now it is a multi-million dollar spectacle broadcast around the world in HD on multiple cable networks.

Something tells me that it won't be long before a Steve Jobs keynote speech gets the same kind of press coverage!

I'm glad to see this happening again and glad to see that the macrumors group actually got tickets to the sold out show. The iPhone/iPod Touch formatted page for Mac World was awesome. Thanks to those who make this possible.
