The Long Weekend - Part 2

I carried on building and fitting boxes to the camper.

Finally I'm finished.
If I could I'd take pictures and show you.
Later.
The hell that is my phone carries on.
I know this is trivial but it doesn't make it easier to handle.
I WANT THIS TECHNOLOGY SO AS TO DO GREAT STUFF WITH EASE.
I'm shouting because I didn't notice the caps lock - fat fingers.
But it's just typical.
Any how.
My phone was shit because I installed ios 4.0 (never do a dot zero upgrade they are always shit)
Finally I thought - go to 4.2.
But you need iTunes 10 to get there.
itunes 10 needs macos 10.blah blah.
not a simple upgrade - £129.
S's mac book has 10.blah blah.
Upgrade that itunes to 10 and then upgrade iPhone to ios 4.2.
Ta-raaaa.
Sorted.
Now iPhone won't talk to iTunes 9.something or other on old iMac.
Groan.
£129 notes needed just to make my phone work like it used to.
Bastards.

And so we finally get to the bottom of Mr Jobs ethos.
I am trying not to laugh, really I am.
Well to be honest, I'm not laughing - more of a guffaw!
Still, I suppose if this mobile device matches the colour of your favourite pantaloons, it is well worth another £129 to make it work like my free one does eh?
Oh mercy me!

I accept all you say.
And raise you Jonathan Ive

And it's not just superficial, ie concerning surfaces, concept to engineering this stuff does rock.
