This is what happens when you forget to pay your Verizon bill...

...you get to visit the "walled garden" to pay your bill. :) I was probably the only customer to realize and make a payment within one minute of my service cutting out.

So much for device convergence

Robert Nelson — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 08:01:27 -0700

I regularly use and carry an iPhone 3GS, Amazon Kindle, Zune HD and HTC Hero. The strange part is that for the most part, aside from playing Zune Pass content, my iPhone can do most of the things that the other devices do. Yet I still feel the need to use and carry multiple gadgets. Yup, I am a dork, but that is OK.

Very cool and geeky -- even if it is not all that practical for actual use.

Its comments like this...

...that make blogging interesting.

Just recently, a comment was left, on a rather old post that I wrote. Still, it gave me a good laugh. I will protect the guilty, but here is what was left;

"You are a lame.I mean come on dud "if you can't afford an app then maybe you shouldn't have bought an iphon",what the f*#k?I can afford an app but I have over a hundred apps. Some close to a hundred dollers some are a hundred bucks so i love cracked apps."

The post was in reference to cracked iPhone apps, and it seems that this person feels entitled to steal simply because they have "over a hundred apps." Gotta love the mentality of the stupid. Stealing is stealing.

Just in case anyone was interested, here is the post that this comment came from:

Why does this stuff only seem to happen, and be accepted when done in an Apple Store?

My evil $6.66 PayPal balance

Robert Nelson — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 04:06:08 -0700

As sad as it may be, my PayPal balance is at an evil level.

$6.66

Of course, I do not really use PayPal other than to get paid and then transfer the balance to my regular checking account. Which means it is typically low.

Still, $6.66 is a pretty fun balance to have.
