A friend recently acquired an iPhone, and started a gchat with me from it. Here’s an excerpt from the conversation. Note that he is chatting from the iPhone.
Yay I sold the stinking thing! I only got $3k for it, but that is better than selling it for 5 and the bloke doesn’t pick it up again. With that we can now pay the obstetrician and buy $1000 worth of silver since it’s about to go nuts.
