Am I being instructed by Apple Corp. as to what I "need to do in life"? I don't need their help to figure that out. This boy does not need music on the go. He may enjoy it thusly, but not nearly so much as when he is at home with his bombastic music system. I have music in the car if I want some travellin' tunes. Cell phone? Don't want one except for emergencies, real or perceived Mine stays solely in the car and I place or take no calls unless stopped and off the roadway or have mechanical troubles. Again, not a device for me to get anal about. Pocket computer? Ha! Don't need one now, and never did. If I get antsy about wanting to access some stream of data, it can wait until I get home. Patience is a virtue, and there are multitudes of other things to do in life beyond staring at screens and tapping keyboards throughout the day. Camera phones? I'm a pro, and those are but toys. Stealing from the Letterman Show, "I poop on them!" Now, if those things rolled out toilet paper, that could alter my perspective.
