Pre-Order iPhone 4

Today, June 14th, was the day to pre-order an iPhone 4. Apple decided to enable ordering during the middle of the night when most people on the East coast were asleep and by the time I woke up at 6 AM, the site was already having issues. I jumped over to the AT&T website and tried to order there, but had similar issues. I spent the morning trying to order from the Apple website with no luck. I even downloaded the Apple Store App and tried to place an order. Around 11 AM I went to the Apple Store at Crabtree Mall in Raleigh and found no indication of preparation of handling in-person iPhone pre-orders. I kinda wandered around the store and tried to figure out who to ask.

iPad: My Take as a Non-Owner

The iPad looks awesome. The device looks to be a much better eBook reader than the Kindle, Nook or Sony’s offering. I’ve messed around with those three devices and really hated the way the screen “flashed” when changing pages and displayed text. The iPad on the other hand displays just like a computer screen. My eyes are accustomed to reading on such a screen.
