There is a new iThing and it's iAwesome!

The screen has more Jobsels per inch then anything ever before.
It can pick out your clothes for any event a week in advance, even before you know what you're doing.
You are practically guaranteed a raise when you buy one.
It listens to music that hipsters don't even know about yet.
The inbuilt towel rack will save the average person 2.7 years of wasted time looking for towels.
Boogie-woogie wop-wop dance pants yeahyeahyeah!

You'll never be without that cool feeling of having bought the latest iThing for at least a fortnight.

Comment My old motorola (Score 1) 233

My ancient motorola flip-phone has survived several bicycle crashes, being thrown through an interior wall, plenty of rain and sweat, and I once lost it in a mall parking lot in the winter where it got buried in snow for a week, then later found by someone and turned in to the local cops, where it and I were eventually reunited. Still works great.

Selling Incandescent Light Bulbs As Heating Devices 557

Csiko writes "The European Union has banned by law trading of incandescent light bulbs due to their bad efficiency/ecology (most of the energy is transformed into heat). A company is now trying to bypass this restriction by offering their incandescent light bulb products as a heating device (article in German) instead of a light device. Still, their 'heat balls' give light as well as heating. So — every law can be bypassed if you have some creativity!"

Doctors Seeing a Rise In "Google-itis" 368

It's one of the fastest-growing health issues that doctors now face: "Google-itis." Everyone from concerned mothers to businessmen on their lunch break are typing in symptoms and coming up with rare diseases or just plain wrong information. Many doctors are bringing computers into examination rooms now so they can search along with patients to alleviate their fears. "I'm not looking for a relationship where the patient accepts my word as the gospel truth," says Dr. James Valek. "I just feel the Internet brings so much misinformation to the (exam) room that we have to fight through all that before we can get to the problem at hand."
