Had a Palm device since working at USRobotics in 1986. Have also been carrying a BlackBerry for many years now.
I've ALWAYS struggled to get data from various web sites when I'm not home. Palm has "Blazer," which is a poor excuse for a browser - getting data is like deciphering hieroglyphics. Of course, the BlackBerry has a browser, but here again - it's just poor.
The iPhone, however, is a device that CAN be used to navigate the WWW without hassle. Ok, no 3G, but living in San Francisco allows for free wifi almost ubiquitously, and in a pinch - Edge is ok (well, it's tolerable...)
Yes, the www.oqo.com/ or the Ultra Portable Vaio would have done the trick, but not at the price point I wanted, and not nearly as elegantly.
Thanks Apple - finally there's a device that can do what no one else has pulled off for this seemingly simple task. This was my # 1 need, and of course, the iPhone does all of its other functions as simply and cleanly as this feature.
Never been an Apple fanboy, but I'm becoming one now.
Issues that still bother me/don't work:
1) Using my @pacbell.net domain name email address with Yahoo IMAP.
2) Why can't you plug in the AC and the USB at the same time?
3) No search across most functions (email, calendar, contacts)
4) Safari kinda buggy - needs work.
Charles Darwin would wet himself if he saw this photo…
At first I thought “damm, out of focus! Fuck walking up all those stairs again!” But then I realised this photo contains all the information to calculate the natural frequency of Evolution!!!
Look closely at the light trails of the cars on the freeway – they are all oscillating – WTF? Viewing large will help - plus it looks heaps cooler large.
Speed of Cars on Freeway = 70km/h = 19.44m/s
Assume driver in the left hand lane of the westbound road is abiding the speed limit as he crosses under the Victoria Bridge.
Assume the vehicle is a standard 2WD passenger car:
Vehicle wheel track = 1570mm =~ headlight separation (toyota.com).
From the magnified image the distance between successive peaks on the light trail oscillations equals approximately the vehicle track = 1570mm = 1.57m.
Time to cover 1.57m @ 19.44m/s by the vehicle = 0.08076 Seconds
So we know the period of vibration of Evolution is 0.08076 Seconds
Inverting this result gives the frequency of vibration of Evolution = 12.3824Hz
Assume that the presence of other explorers had negligible effect on the very large mass of Evolution, and that there were no other oscillating forces acting on Evolution. Thus the vibration observed was in fact unforced vibration, ie; vibration at natural frequency.
Final result:
The natural frequency of evolution is 12.3825Hz.
If this makes no sense, buy a brand new unit in Brisbane.
This photo is for friends only :) NOW PUBLIC
Inked, scanned and digitally colored with CS5 Photoshop. The first and third panels have a second joke in them, if you look closely.

The Lancair Evolution is an American pressurized, low wing, four-place, single engine light aircraft, made from carbon fiber composite, developed by Lancair and available as an amateur-built kit.[1][2][3]
The Evolution can be powered by a Lycoming TEO-540-A piston engine or a Pratt & Whitney PT6-135A turboprop powerplant.
