Unboxing My New iPhone 3G on YouTube

Link: iPhone 3G Unboxing





This is my video that I put on YouTube that shows me unboxing my new iPhone 3G. So far it has been pretty good to me. I know that there are A LOT of people trying to get their hands on one of these. For myself, I called into an Apple store and they said they had some. I went down there and I was about 10th in line, so I figured it wouldn't be that bad of a wait (maybe hour max). Well, I got sucked into waiting in line for a loooong time. Half an hour turned into a hour. I figured, "Heck, I'm here for an hour, might as well wait a bit longer." Well, I ended up waiting for 2 hours. If I knew I was gonna wait that long, then I wouldn't have stayed. But, I did, and now I have myself an iPhone 3G.

As shown in the video, comes with ear buds (which can also be used as a hands-free headset), A USB cable, and a new smaller charger. Oh, and a nifty pin thingy if I ever want to switch out the SIM card.

Failing on the iPhone

I hope this doesn't happen to me if i get an iPhone. I don't really like the safari web browser on the iPhone, every time I played with it, it would always crash on me. Hopefully they patched things up in time for the new software rollout.

First off, this is a kayak, not a canoe.

Now, imagine this lovely thing. Going out and seeing the world under you while you paddle out. It would either be really exciting, or very dull because you won't be able to see deep down into the ocean... but it sounds cool.

Now imagine, if you tip this thing over, or if people are trying to spot it from far away, it's gonna be a bit tough. Good thought, but will it work??
