  • Apple iPhone technical bleg fun!

    Posted on September 11th, 2007 Chris Arndt No comments

    To quote Joe Pesci’s character Leo Getz from Die Hard

    Okay! Okay! Okay!

    That’s just to get your attention long enough to ask the question.. if you have an iPhone, do you have to activate the cellphone plan with ATT to be able to use the phone in its other function as an MP3 player… or as a Wifi connective internet browser?

    Through what service does it normally browse YouTube, etc?

    I’m not asking because I am about to buy an iPhone but becase I took a volunteer position that only pays in, you guessed it, iPhones.

    Well, iPhone. singular. Who wants to help me earn one iPhone. You have to be attending a college or University to help me though.

    The new blog system has a flaw that, I suspect, is shutting out the other authors. It’s nothing I can solve; we have to wait for the bug fix. I may just give the other authors admin authority so they can get in until Movable Type fixes the bug.

    However, some good news: I have resolved one technical problem and just need some time to do some template work. Maybe Tuesday night. (I spent the whole weekend canning spaghetti sauce. Barely had time to check my e-mail.)

    We’re missing some choice comic news, particularly Chuck Dixon’s return to the pages of Robin in January. I’m so happy for Chuck, though I don’t envy his trying to salvage a character who has been pretty much wrecked since his leaving. There’s a thread on his message board right now to bring all the readers who deserted the book in the last five years up to speed. (Essentially: everybody’s dead.)
