An iphone? Wot. No iPad yet?

(By the way, am I the only one to think that yesterday's F1 coverage was the best publicity the BBC^» could give to Apple? There was Jake Humphrey using his iPad to show Mark Webber a video at the opening, and he continued to be glued to it until the start of the race. Apple must have been overjoyed.)

I have a 17inch mac book pro - why do I need an i pad? I just chose not to take my dongle with me! Which was announced on here before hand!

Sorry, I'm not a brain scientist. Not very good at rocket surgery either. Wink

I actually heard someone* in a local hardware store describe putting up shelves as 'hardly rocket surgery' !!!

(Still way off topic, I blame the red wine!)

*And no, it wasn't a driver or a guard!

I was at a meeting recently when someone in their exasperation exclaimed, "Well you hardly need to be a rocket scientist to understand the concept!"

There was a brief silence, then a lady to my left quietly said, "Actually, I am a rocket scientist. And I'm really struggling with this..."
