Hotel Chevalier

Love him or hate him, Wes Anderson is an original storyteller. I’ve been a fan of his for years and have much respect for his humor, wit and imagination. I was upset to hear that his short film, “Hotel Chevalier” would not be released with the theatrical screenings of his new feature length film, “The Darjeeling Limited”. The situation improved when I found out it would be released after October 2nd on the iTunes Store. Then it got even better when I found it there, today, for free. If you enjoy Wes Anderson and his films hit up the iTunes Store now to get yours!!!

I gots me an iPhone!

I took a promotion at work recently. One that requires me to be on call, 24-7. So after years of resisting joining the “cel phone culture”- I have finally caved- I bought an iPhone. I have to admit that it is pretty frikkin’ sweet!

With some exceptions…

For starters, FedEx botched the delivery…

Setting up the service with AT&T was slightly trying…

Why did Apple put the speaker and microphone side by side? Without the headphones or Bluetooth using it as a phone is difficult at best.

Otherwise, the phone is a dream, I’ve read no instructions nor watched any of the demos. Using it has been largely intuitive and simple to figure out.

As for versatility…I posted this from my iPhone.
