The moment of silence was very appropriate. The sound of the champagne
cork popping to celebrate the fact that I don't have one of those old
technology iPhones was sweet.

Any phone that requires you to add basic functioanlity, while still
lacking others completely, is a dinosaur. I don't care what the
interface looks like.

Sure you don't. You sure care enough to post incessantly about a product
you, supposedly, don't care about. OK. <chuckle>

Or I could just post about nothing at all, like you. That would make me
productive, wouldn't it?

From the Bluetooth headset running handsfree and A2DP simultaneously like
my Motorola Z6m?

We'll now have a moment of silence for the iPhoners who don't have it....

Ok, now we can continue.....to laugh.

MotoROKR Z6m and S9 with a 2GB microSD full of MP3s....FAR better than
iAnything for music. S9 is the finest headset I own. Beautiful piece of
engineering whos soft rubber makes no mechanical noise, at all, when you
move your head...
