And the Notes *is* a way to write on them now. My, it's going to be a long five months for me. True, there is the iTouch—a very nice machine with WiFi and all that.

It's a $400 device that has him completely ignoring the $800 Mac Mini at home. He also has a cell phone, but the idea of putting everything in one gizmo has him drooling. Unfortunately the iPhone is not (legitimately) available in Canada yet.

Is that I word? I bet an iPhone could tell me. *wink* A luddite myself, I have to confess that I too am eyeing this iPhone with great drooling and covetousness. Is that I word?

The daringfireball article link above has a smart and understandable discussion of the 3G network, and why internal bus speed trumps connectivity issues, but your boy at the Guardian definitely has his finger on the, uh, pulse.
