How else am I supposed to operate air traffic control from my car?
Last Friday I lost my phone. Many have you have been through the same thing-- the frantic searching, the despair, the realization that you never backed up all the information in your phone, etc. In the end, I gave up and got an iPhone. It's very fun.
Since I am a lawyer, though, I always read the contracts I sign, even is it is 22 pages long, like the iPhone's Terms and Conditions. While reading through that document, I did find something very intriguing in the second paragraph. In all caps, it informed me that I could not use my iPhone for the following things:
- Operating a nuclear facility
- Aircraft navigation
- Air traffic control
Seriously, is there a chance I would be able to operate a nuclear facility with my phone? Yikes!
Fortunately, I am still allowed several other functions, including controlling the speed of Prof. Serr's pacemaker, which will come in handy at our debate at 7 pm tonight in Room 122 at the law school.

It sounds like post-9/11 CYA on the part of the Apple legal department.
But now somebody will probably try to do it, just because Apple mentioned it . . .

Does this mean that if I show up late for orientation that I will get to talk to prof. Fusilier on an iPhone! Whoop!

You have a special knack for self-promotion. Your iPhone contract inspired you to advertise for your debate. Shameless.

Knowing that you are indeed a technophile, I do have to question just how hard you REALLY looked for that old phone before deciding, "OH WELL! Guess I have to buy an iPhone!"
Did you at least look under debate briefing books you've been studying?
