[nature boy]

i figure that's why the forums are so dead now, all you nerds are watching this.
in case you aren't, harry yeh posted this link with pretty good coverage of what's going on.

those new earpods seem pretty cool. hopefully they're better sounding/more comfortable than the original apple ear buds.

So the new connector for the iPhone is the lightning connector.

[nature boy]

are there adaptors?

[geForce]

If Apple doesn't come out with adapters, I'm sure the multitudes of 3rd party manufacturers will.

apparently they announced that there'll be adapters.. either they're working on them or it's already available.

seeing as how i still have 2 years on my contract (ugh, so regretting stacking a 3 yr contract on top of my remaining 1 yr in 2010), i dont find myself caring too much about this release... i think my next phone will be in the iphone6 era... lol

I have some fresh organic apples in my fridge.

[nature boy]

[Wetundies]

[nature boy]

[nature boy]

apparently conan did a sketch too... too lazy to look it up.. go to it nat

[nature boy]

it's hard to find conan stuff because most of it is american-only, so we can't view it here.

[nature boy]

i found a description about it. apparently conan sent an intern to get him a pre-release of the iphone 5 and the intern was kidnapped by guys in a black samsung van haha.

They "sold out" of pre-orders within 2 hours.
