iPhone lights a fire A video of a burning fire is now available as a premium application for the iPhone, but it remains to be seen if even iPhone users are stupid enough to pay $2 to listen to advertisements for Christmas albums.

One of the things that helped scare me off the iPhone.

No fule here. No iLogFire either! How about a mocked up pile of iPhones instead of logs - then a few iHaters may decide to take the plunge!
...always watch the Yule Log on christmas. It's awesome. The best part is that this year we have a pellet stove, so we get double the fun!
We also watched, believe it or not, a *documentary on the filming of the Yule Log*. Apparently it was shot at some big hoo-a's house in the mid '60s for a local TV station. Unfortunately they screwed up the shoot the first time, and damn near burned the place down. That's not the take they show, though.
Just because it has some good features, doesn't make it a good phone. Where do you think that Apple got the idea for a mobile phone in the first place? Some fanboi arguments are quite sound, but you just look like an idiot.

The clue's in the name. Personal computer, doesn't get much realer than that, does it? Twat.
