Chicago's Finest Thu 07.12.07 8:09pm PDT #21461 |
Sandy, Jen L and I took most of the staff of our Midwest Regional Office to lunch at their favorite Mexican Restaurant, Hay Caramba!, as thanks for hosting one of our co-workers, Jen C, in their offices for the last 2 1/2 years. Jen C didn't get rehired in our recent reorganization, so she has scored a new job elsewhere in Chicago. Tomorrow is her last day. Boss Hopp, along with Josie, Linda, Cindy, Deb, Tom and others who work in this office, were in good spirits despite deep sadness about their friend Jen C's moving on. They will help box up Jen's company gear after tomorrow. I'll know I'll miss Jen's unwavering cheerful serenity. I'm so looking forward to getting out of the business of team disassembly and back into team building. - mike lee - |

I'm An iPhone Pusher Sat 07.07.07 9:26pm PDT #21429 |
My neighbor Jeff has been blogging about his obsession with the iPhone. Today he came over to see mine and we ended up driving to the nearest Apple Store so he could buy one. Jeff is pictured here showing his iPhone Lust-O-Meter to the Apple sales associate. I haven't heard from him since he activated it, so he must certainly be busy exploring all the phone's features. I'm sure he'll be working up a new post about pegging the Lust-O-Meter. - mike lee - wheaton, md |
iPhone Notes - 2nd try Wed 07.04.07 10:59pm PDT #21411 |
My neighbor Jeff is agonizing over buying an iPhone. He's post an iPhone Lust-O-Meter on his blog. He should enter the iPhone giveaway that my wife has running on her organization's web site. Here are some other random notes:
One of the best iPhone reviews I've seen to date is on Engadget. - mike lee - happy 4th - wheaton, md |

I got over 10,000 hits to my Flickr stream in the last 24 hours because Make Blog and Boing Boing linked to my close-up photo experiments with the iPhone camera and Radio Shack 3-lens magnifier. This is the same technique I documented here back in January 2005. I'm going to continue to post iPhone related photos in a set on Flickr. My neighbor Jeff is agonizing over buying an iPhone. He's post an iPhone Lust-O-Meter on his blog. He should enter the leather folio belt case made by Incase.

iPhones Galore Sat 06.30.07 11:35am PDT #21385 |
The Apple Stores around us, including the one at Montgomery Mall, have plenty of iPhones as of mid-day today (note all the green "available" dots on the Apple's list of Maryland stores). So I didn't need to wait nine hours yesterday. But I'm still glad I did. I actually bought two iPhones yesterday because my wife's boss wanted the second one to raffle off on their web site. Then last night, my wife got iPhone fever after playing with mine, so we just bought hers at the mall. It was between the iPhone and Helio Ocean until last night. Let's hope our toddler Cici doesn't start to ask for one! She was already having fun last night with the touch screen moving photos around with the swipe of her finger. - mike lee - north bethesda, md |
A Hand-sized Magic Carpet Sat 06.30.07 9:28am PDT #21383 |
My first few hours with the iPhone were a magic carpet ride flying past buttery smooth OS X screens. All the good things that have been said about the iPhone are true (see the exhaustive coverage on Engadget), most anything related to missing features in the software will likely be addressed in upcoming updates. What's not in the hardware, like camera flash, faster phone network, more memory and keyboard will have to come in the next couple years in a future iPhone. I see the vast opportunities this breakthrough phone opens up, so I'll likely be retiring my Sidekick on its 5th anniversary this October to stay on this black and silver magic carpet. I'm going to continue to collect thoughts about the iPhone as I go on about my weekend. More soon... - mike lee - wheaton, md |
