My first job ever was at McDonalds Restaurant when I was a freshman in high school. I specialized in the drive-thru.

I wasn't excited about the Apple iPhone until I was bugged by friends to check it out. The word-of-mount buzz on this device has been crazy. What's the big deal about the iPhone? The big deal for me is that I can now replace tons of devices. I'm tired of carrying a Treo, Blackberry, iPod, and cam...
