iPhone: Coverage Roundup I

Posted Jun 29, 05:03 PM in Apple by Scott Conley

Thanks to everyone who has sent me links or phone calls with great “hey I saw you, you crazy, not-good-looking man’ material!

Related, a huge thank you to my beautiful bride, who not only supported us with personal and timely visits to the queue, but legged out so many of these links for us. I love you, princess!! I’m putting up an unrelated photo, in celebration.


The Bride considers the Kohler child.

Now, first up is a great Wired News piece This guy- Keith “don’t-call-me-Kevin-even-if-you-didn’t” at Wired News wrote up a nice story, which I think ends beautifully. You’ll have to scroll halfway down to get to my bit.

Good picture of my feet (if you are willing to concede such a thing) on thestar.com

This one, too.

Camille, the ‘faux 13’ I mentioned? She has a ton of pics on her Picasa albums but I liked this one of ‘Thunder’ John Lawton.

France weighs in!, and translated

Italy, too? and translated (sort of).

Norway has nothing but love for Geoff and I, and you have to respect the Swiss (translation ). I love the translation’s take on John’s quote: “But enough for what that is worth the sorrow to camp here.” This sounds more like it came out of a Civil War general than John Lawton IV!

This same story was picked up by 24 Hours and is available without a subscription (Boo tdg.ch!)

UPDATE Thanks, Pilv, for the Canadian links. As expected, Ian’s piece is terrific. I will have to ask him about his fact checking, however, as I don’t think Geoff and I had two cellphones AND two Blackberries.. :)

UPDATE Ji’s also provided a great link from Chinese media! I love this photo (hadn’t seen it!) and here’s the Google translation . Let me know if you want my pal Ji to give us a better one.

How did this line compare to the Episode 1 line?

This line was waaay crazier (media + Manhattan), but the people on it were not as cool.

I’d have to say that camping in NYC was a far richer experience than camping in Brandon Town Center :P
