    How the heck did you two get your laptops to last 6 hours apiece? Spare batteries? External batteries? Or do they just last really long?

    Perhaps I've been corrupted by a slew of desktop-replacement laptops that only last 2-3 hours on battery, but even on a more portable unit, 6 hours evokes envy.

    Maybe they had those slick netbooks that last about 12 hours :D

    I wonder if like with the first iPhone, you will be able to walk into uncrowded store in the afternoon and pick up the iPhone 3G. I LOLed at people who were camping out for few days and then some folks from the office popped during their lunch break and got the iPhone without waiting:)

    Man, I had no idea you lived here in Raleigh, was quite a shock seeing the pictures taken from North Hills, I eat at that Chick-fil-a just about every day for lunch, my office is just inside the beltline on Six Forks, right before you get to Wake Forest Rd.

    Anyway, let us know how you like that new iPhone, I've been considering one myself :)

    I wish we had 3G where I live... and Chickfila.

    While the two of you are sitting there, could you ask Mark where UT3 Patch 3 is? We few UT3 players still out there are starting to drop dead from the wait.
