  2. Spudley says:

    Did you have an iPod? I know combining your music and mobile requirements makes sense but I’m always losing my mobile. I’d hate to lose the iPod though

  3. SuperGrover says:

    there’s no way he’s going to answer any questions, i reckon.

    too busy oohing and aahing at the touchscreenness of it all.

    ah, gadgets.

  4. Plop says:

    That is all.

  6. Spudley says:

    Good point SG, but if one’s blog isn’t a forum for boasting then it’s a waste of time eh?

  7. maggot says:

    He’ll be downloading a Damien Rice ringtone.

  8. SuperGrover says:

    I’ve always been a fan of home entertainment thingies and gadgets and the like but thta gizmo is like the 21st century has finally arrived.

    It’s all about the screen. Fuckin’ slick, is right, Plop.

  9. SuperGrover says:

    speaking of gadgets, i invented the first tv remote i ever saw.

    it was a telescopic meccano arm built to operate the buttons on a radio alarm clock.

  10. SuperGrover says:

    yeah, and, like, so fuckin’ what?

  11. Holemaster says:

    iGloo

  14. tatoca says:

    iGloo, heh

    my fiancee is an appleholic either, it took him 2 days to stop staring at the iPhone when he got his one. i’m sure he is back at staring now that the cool 2.0 apps are available

  15. Holemaster says:

    “Can I do an Iplop in it?”

    Nope but you can do an iPoo

  16. Holemaster says:

    Or an iPee

    Ha, got the slow down posting message,

  17. Holemaster says:

    Or an iPuke

  18. jazz biscuit says:

    Did you make this post with it?

  19. Damien Rice got one too.

  20. SuperGrover says:

    Next week sees the release of the new lizard-specific Tamagotchi.

    I have already ordered my iGuana

  21. Tricia says:

    me too… it’s the dogs! but then again I’m a committed Mac addict so never was going to resist

  22. Twenty Major says:

    jazz, I certainly did

  23. organdonor says:

    Do hoody skangers call it an i-stroke?

  24. SuperGrover says:

    tip for you… the keyboard is bigger when you turn the yoke sideways

  25. I still want an I-Phone of course.

    Don’t mistake my jealousy for contempt.

  26. Alan Smithee says:

    I still use a “tranny.”

  27. Puerile Pish says:

    How did we go from technology to cross dressing shenanigans?

  28. “I’m an appleoholic”

    I knew you weren’t all bad. I am going to try to get myself one tomorrow. I expect to fail, but one of those lovely, lovely gadgets will be mine, oh yes…

  29. Holemaster says:

    Old school Apple people like me call themselves Mac people. So I’m a Mac person. And like all old school Mac people who know shit, you never buy the first version of anything. Wait until they are into version three or four of the iPhone before you buy it.

  30. Monkey Balls says:

    Now I understand what the countdown was all about!

  31. RedLeeroy says:

    so what do these iphones you speak of actually do ?

  32. porridge says:

    Apple Computer announced today that it has developed a computer chip that can store and play music in women’s breast implants.
    The iTit® will cost €499 or €599 depending on cup size.

    This is considered to be a major breakthrough because women are always complaining about men staring at their breasts and not listening to them.

    badoom-tish

  33. Monkey Balls says:

    speaking of gadgets, i invented the first tv remote i ever saw.
    it was a telescopic meccano arm built to operate the buttons on a radio alarm clock.

    SG, my next-door neighbour’s 2yr old son has asked me to ask you to clarify this statement. He’s not the brightest kid on the road, but he does have a point.

  34. organdonor says:

    Tony Fenton’s -Daily BrownLoad is on.. gotto escape…. to the jacks with me!!

  35. SuperGrover says:

    not tv. radio. sorry. preconditioning there…

  36. Keith says:

    You realise that owning an iPhone now officially makes you a member of the Pretentious Bastard club?

  37. Holemaster says:

    “speaking of gadgets, i invented the first tv remote i ever saw.
    it was a telescopic meccano arm built to operate the buttons on a radio alarm clock.”

    I made a pair of meccano sandles once which I insisted on wearing much to the frustration of my mother. But I guess I was ahead of my time because those fucking weird looking coloured plastic sandles you see now look very like them.

  38. Monkey Balls says:

    It’s OK SG. He says he’ll let you away with it, on condition that you build him a device he can’t seem to find by himself in the shops.
    Basically, what he needs is something that will fit around his over-sized head. It has to be lockable, and have some way of securing a ring-shaped handle about two-thirds of the way down the front.
    Says he’s sick of waking up in the morning to find his soother missing, again.

  39. SuperGrover says:

    Sorry, I only do 1970s remote control devices with meccano.

    But, on the bright side, I do quite a line in Lego nappies.

  40. Hooronahonda says:

    ‘Sorry, I only do 1970s remote control devices with meccano.

    But, on the bright side, I do quite a line in Lego nappies.’

    No ‘shit a brick’ puns please!

  41. Twenty Major says:

    And like all old school Mac people who know shit, you never buy the first version of anything.

    Which is why I bought the second version.

  42. Holemaster says:

    “Which is why I bought the second version.”

    Yeah flippin’ knew you’d say that.

  43. Holemaster says:

    “But, on the bright side, I do quite a line in Lego nappies.’”

    Duplo or Classic?

  44. Grandad says:

    Waddya get a phone for, Twenty?

    You don’t know anyone to call…

  45. Twenty Major says:

    I have it just in case there’s something strange, in my neighbourhood.

    Then I know fine well who I’m gonna call.

  46. Hooronahonda says:

    I heard you can scramble NASA’s satellite downlinks with an I- phone, an eggbeater and a nine foot long carbon fibre fishing rod.

  47. Topper Harley says:

    I bet you have a wii as well, you big girl’s blouse

  48. Hooronahonda says:

    “I bet you have a wii as well, you big girl’s blouseI”

    No ‘wee’ puns please!

  49. Augusto says:

    Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters!

    (couldn’t help it)

  50. maggot says:

    I bet you have a wii as well, you big girl’s blouse

    He’s waiting for a Poo.

    I’m sick of MS Vista – considering a Mac, but they are scary and confusing.

  51. Sleep with one eye open, Twenty. I’m coming for that phone…

  52. manuel says:

    fuckers wont let me switch contracts……fuckers

  53. SAm Crea says:

    I want an iphone so I can use the mp3 I have of the tune to Curb your entusiasm as my ringtone…

  54. Stephen says:

    More like MAL-funky…TIONAL. Am I right?

  55. Holemaster says:

    “I want an iphone so I can use the mp3 I have of the tune to Curb your entusiasm as my ringtone…”

    Good choice SAm. I think you should be able to get onto your phone though. Can you copy it off the iPod into your computer and then onto your phone?

    I want Trailer Park Boys on mine.

  56. my shitty 80 euro Sagem phone can have mp3s as ringtones.
    (it even came with 80 euro credit and that was 3 years ago)

  57. kev 2 says:

    I still have a bakelite radio

  58. Monkey Balls says:

    Here Twenty, I notice your posts and comments have shrunk in length since you got the new phone.
    Must be them big sausage fingers you have, eh?

  59. Matt Black says:

    Does this make you an iPhoney? Manuel: You dont need switch contracts just hack that baby. It was easy for Iphone fits gen: http://download.ziphone.org/

  60. Holemaster says:

    Bonggggg bonggggg bongggggg bongggggg

    and so on

  61. Jo says:

    I hope you paused in your typing and gazed poetically out the window, Holemaster.

  62. Holemaster says:

    I knew I could rely on you Jo.

  63. Adonis says:

    I have, loike an iPhone, loike right? Mm ya! Drinking mochachino while typing with your skinny girl fingers?
    Poncey Southsider!

  64. Jo says:

    I met someone with one today, a mother of five, living in the country, who makes babyslings for a living – she pretty much defied that stereotype. You do need some skinny fingers though, it seems.

    Holemaster, I have to confess you made me have a vision of a hardened Catholic internet porn addict, pausing mid-wank to stare out the window devoutly.

    Not you, now, I hasten to add.

  65. Alan Smithee says:

    Sunday.Yeah, cumon 20, quit playing with it and get writing.

  66. Twenty Major says:

    Sunday is a day of rest, you demanding cunt.

  67. Alan Smithee says:
