The astute reader is probably wondering to him or herself “Wait a second… there are more than 12 icons on the SpringBoard!?!?!? How is this possible and what are they!??!?!” Well I’m glad you asked. Since Erin has already posted a pic of my iPhone up on our blog for Apple Customer Care to see that I have voided my warranty (sigh) I will tell you what those magical icons are! They are for Installer.app and a variety of goodies available through the Installer.app package manager. There are some creative types out there that have started writing some nifty applications for the iPhone without any help of an iPhone SDK which is pretty impressive when you think about it. In any case, I have not posted anything positive or negative about the iPhone yet on our blog because I don’t want to be labeled an “Apple Fan Boy” so suffice it to say we both have drank the Kool-Aid and have gotten iPhones but I will reserve my official blog comments for awhile until I’ve really thrown it through the ringer. (No pun intended.) I will say this though, best phone I’ve ever had but there are “caveats.”

The iPhone is hard to use in the car, otherwise it’s great. I hear some updates are coming out soon.
