IPSC Rocks and That iPhone Looks Cool Too

Okay so I'm sure that IPSC (IP Subnet Calculator for console) is old hat to many but I'd discovered it this morning and man am I'm happy I did. It's nice not to have to either go to a web page or just figuring it out in your head.

In other news Apple released the iPhone. I'd want one if:

• I knew what components were in it processor, amount of memory etc.





I don't want a phone that's under powered or that it has really crazy annoying DRM in it. Also I'd like to get a good guage of the battery life as I use my cellphone as my primary phone and am prone to go days without charging if possible. Additionally I don't want a phone that chokes while running apps and acting as a phone.



• It wasn't tied Cingular






T-mobile has been really really good to me. Plus the whole being able to roam on Cingular's network is nice. I don't want to have to pay $200 - $250 to break my plan with T-Mobile in addition to the $499 - $599 price tag for the phone. Together that just prices the phone out my willingness to spend cash.
