iPhone part Deux or trois...

I'm beginning to sound a bit like a broken record... 2 events collided in the last couple of weeks causing me to *gasp* (re)get an iPhone.

1) My Sprint Palm Centro finally had the 5-way navigator stop working in 4 of the 5 directions. This makes is exceptionally difficult to navigate the device. I've tried every other Sprint phone and none really do what I want or need.

2) Vacationing in a foreign country with my wife's iPhone once again showed me how useful the device can be, especially when traveling without a laptop.

China Firefighter

Firefighter's in China

A friend of mine worked the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in China this past summer. Knowing I was a firefighter and this would amuse me, she snapped this picture. This is what appears to be a temporary fire station near Olympic Village. The station housed 2 fire trucks and only 2 firefighters - one for each truck. The best part (or worst) is, I guess in an attempt to look busy, the 2 firefighters had to stand at attention on that red box all day long. Note the little fire extinguisher on the ground next to them.
