The generous woman that Robin is, for our wedding anniversary (maybe a bit a of a birthday present as well) she got me a Sony Playstation 3, MetalGear Solid 1-4. After playing MGS1 for a little bit… I jumped right to MGS4 and WOW. Let’s put it this way… the last console system I owned was a SEGA Genesis 16. Now with a 52″ HD screen, PS3 and Dolby 5.1 surround sound, well lets say this may be a present that Robin may regret getting me when she has to start fighting me for time in frount of the TV.

Recently though, much of the lost footage was rediscovered.
Apple’s faster, cheaper iPhone 3G goes on sale - Jul. 11, 2008
Sounds like I so made the right call in not getting in line today. A co-worker in my office reports that the Southcenter AT&T Store was sold out when they checked it out at noon today.
The iPhone 2.0 update - don’t do it, kids | The Register
For iPhone users the situation is even worse, as once the upgrade is installed they are required to register with iTunes before their phone’s service returns to operation - but with iTunes playing hard to get, that’s very difficult. Several Reg readers report being cut off, though they do have the consolation of being able to buy a copy of Super Monkey and play it.
