Thursday September 06, 2007 HP's got something hotter than Carly Fiorina at a contentious board meeting

Wednesday September 05, 2007 Steve Jobs pooches his early iPhone adopters
Stevie-boy, in an act of desperation to prop up his failing non-Java ME iPhone, has cut the price of the ill-fated device by $200 after only 10 weeks. If I were an iPhone early adopter, I'd be hella p*ssed! See: Stevie-boy p*sses off iPhone early adopters Here's a quote: "I feel like I just got punched in the face," said one commenter on the MacRumors blog. "Fanboy tax indeed."They should've bought a Java ME technology-enabled cell phone instead... I can't say I didn't warn them. Or, at least they should've waited to buy the just announced touchscreen iPod instead. That way they could put Java ME technology on these new touchscreen iPods (with the swoopy UI just like on the iPhones, with panning and zooming at half the price!). See: Java ME for new touchscreen iPods. Now, that would be cool... |
