I wasn't going to rant again so quickly after my last rant but another thing has reared it's ugly head.

PC World has an article titled, "The iPhone OS 4.0 Wishlist". The 3.0 operating system for the durn thing has been out a week and they already have a wishlist for 4.0??? Are you kidding me? Tech journalists are like kids at Christmas who get too many toys and play with each one for about 5 minutes before going to the next. You haven't had the toy for more than a week and you already want a new, better one.

I wonder if these guys on the morning after their short honeymoon write articles like, "What we'd like to see in Wife 2.0," or on the day after they bring their first child home from the hospital, "Things we'd love to have in kid #2". Sheesh, what morons.

You have a piece of electronics that was unthinkable twenty years ago, a pipe dream ten years ago and hopeful thinking five years ago. Appreciate it for a couple of months will ya'?

That is all. You may return to what you were doing. Or you can go out and beat your local technology journalist. Whatever works better for you. OF course, I'm joking about that last bit. Mostly.

Thanks for Reading.
