Thanks for your comment, every good wish is treasured.

living through 2015 would be nice.

I have a 60GB iPod with all of my music and podcasts in my bedroom still getting daily use. And there is an original U2 iPod unused in original shrink wraped box in my cupboard.

Airplane mode for the times when you need to read. Set a routine so that you have time for your device and time for your life.

They are allowed to collect foreign calls, catch up with the law please.
