Parody or is she for real? It’s up to you to decide…

p.s.: I think even with her huge nails, she could probably use the tip of her fingers anyway… And you’ll just love the track playing in the media player of the fake iPhone…

Tuesday, March 25th, 2008, by moose

I can totally see his point…
The inevitability of the iPhone:
Unfortunately for Research in Motion, maker of the Blackberry, the in-store price for the 8820 was the same as the iPhone. I deliberated for all of three seconds and walked out with the iPhone.
