Thanks to our mate Mark Johnson for the photo below. Mark was in the queue and one of the first to buy a phone on Launch Day . Mark also has one of the biggest Mac collections.

Some people said I was mad, going to The Trafford Centre and standing in the queue (well strictly speaking I was outside the queue) when I wasn’t even buying the thing. “It’s all part of the Apple Experience” I told them. “Geek” was their reply (or maybe it was “freak”!). Anyway I enjoyed myself and that’s all that matters. You can hear all about it on the next episode of The MacBites Podcast. Meanwhile, enjoy the pics….

sorry I’ve been quiet, iPhone really has left me speechless! Thankfully, I can still use my fingers and this keyboard is a complete revolutionary improvement on any portable device keyboard that I’ve ever attempted to tap at in anger.I hope that doesn’t sound like a complete exageration - believe me, it isn’t.I’ve been a gadget nut for ever and enjoyed (or fell for) the hype of several product launches, but never has a device surpassed my expectations to such an extent.All too often we hear the word convergence, but few really deliver a device to satisfy the expectations of the buying masses who want to carry less items in their pockets - but now I travel lighter!
Safe to say, i’m lovin’ it!
Be aware, I may be inclined to mention iPhone in future podcasts.
