Therefore, we have decided to offer every iPhone customer who purchased an iPhone from either Apple or AT&T, and who is not receiving a rebate or any other consideration, a $100 store credit towards the purchase of any product at an Apple Retail Store or the Apple Online Store. Details are still being worked out and will be posted on Apple's website next week. Stay tuned.
We want to do the right thing for our valued iPhone customers. We apologize for disappointing some of you, and we are doing our best to live up to your high expectations of Apple.

We went to Hilton Head for the weekend. We ate here. I am SO glad we did. There are two large Chihuli chandelliers in the restaurant, and more fiber-optic infused glass sculpture in the lounge.
I eat fast. Rudely so. I can't help it. But at this place, I took a bite, then smiled and relaxed and chewed slowly and enjoyed it savoring every bite. Foodgasm each and every bite. The portions are large, and the presentation is beautiful.
We had the Mixed Tikka apetizer, which included lamb and pork sausage that was quite biryani like, and was out of sight. The tandori flavor was full, and the meats were fine so you could enjoy the meat taste and it wasn't overwhelmed by spice.
Then we had the Chicken Tikka Masala, Red Fort Lamb, and Chicken Biryani, along with (eventually) three orders of Chapatti to soak up every bit of sauce. The Tikka sauce was more like butter than butter. The lamb was tender and savory. The Biryani was deeply infused with taste, unlike most restaurant biryani. I suspect they cook it right, daily and not to order.
Hands down, this is the best Northern Indian food I have ever had, in India or anywhere else. With two mixed drinks, the bill for two came out to $134. We drank and ate to excess, and a good meal for two can be had for less than $100. It was money well spent.
I cannot recommend this place more. Next door is a Jazz club and the British Open Pub, and both are highly recommended as well.
An introduction to Eclipse for Visual Studio users
Topic: Technology

Eclipse is a new world for Microsoft� Visual Studio� developers, and getting started with Eclipse can be confusing. New concepts, such as plug-in architecture, workspace-centric project structure, and automatic build can seem counterintuitive at first. Learn about these and other differences between the two environments, so that you can begin to feel at home with Eclipse.
All integrated development environments (IDEs) share similarities because they're all built for the same purpose. But they have differences, too. Some of these can be attributed to application domains, but others result from the IDE design.
I use Eclipse for Java, Perl, Javascript, XML/HTML/CSS. Some its great for, others I use it for just because its nice to have all my shite done in one place.
I love this thing. I love it. Thanks so much for the invite, whoever sent it.
Finally, I have the power over who can and can't call me. I changed my cell number and am never giving it out to anyone. I can enter my GC number into any form and never have to worry about telemarketers, as I have SPAM filtering enabled, and if I don't know you then you must announce yourself before you can reach me. And if I don't like you, I block you.
It rings me on SkypeIn, Cellie, and home if I'm there, all at the same time. This means people I want to get ahold of me actually can, any time I'm available, and I don't have to look under cushions for the phone. I just click accept.
All features I've wanted on my phones for 20 years or so, but nobody ever bothered to offer.
Grand Central is as bad ass as gmail was when it first came out. Its great. I love it.

Podcast with Your Iphone: How-to Video Posted on 08.29.07 by andyed @ 12:41 pm
The iPhone hacking community has come a long in the couple months since the iPhone was released, under extensibility lockdown. Not only can you now get an iPhone “out of jail”, there are a growing set of useful native applications.
It turns out one of the things the iPhone does really well is record podcasts. The combination of the adaptive multi-rate format, the iPhone speakerphone, and ad hoc recording scenarios produces a suprisingly solid outcome when combined with the freely available Levelator tool. Check this short video for a how-to.

There is a contradiction in the very phrase "software company." The two words are pulling in opposite directions. Any good programmer in a large organization is going to be at odds with it, because organizations are designed to prevent what programmers strive for.
