Just doesn’t seem fair to me that Fake Steve shuts down, while the blendertards just keep booming, along with icanhascheezburger and Perez Hilton. Groan. Don’t get me started.

Just did a quick videocam intereview with a guy named Justin who has a show called TalkingheadTV and he was asking me which iPhone apps I like best.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxp4FuezU1I&hl=en&fs=1] Portfolio magazine is to the media world what Sam Palmisano is to technology — you know they’re still out there, somewhere, if only because you’re pretty sure that if they’d gone out of business you’d have read something about it, yet you never seem to see Portfolio anywhere or hear about anything they’ve said [...]

Many thanks to eagle-eyed reader Christopher T. who spotted the photo above which shows one Danny Fukuba showing off his 3G iPhone after waiting in line for two days outside the Palo Alto store. Turns out this same kid was detained a while back for messing around with iPhones in an Apple store. At [...]

See here. Arik Hesseldahl says he’s talked to a source close to Apple who says Real Steve is okay. This was in response to this article in the New York Post suggesting otherwise. I hope Arik is right.

So I wanted to get out and stay out. I really did. I wanted at least to have the summer off. But stuff keeps happening and I can’t resist.
