As some of you may or may not have known, my grandpa had been very sick for a very long time. My participation here began to wane as a result, and this morning he passed away. I'm feeling a strange mixture of disbelief, relief, sadness, and closure. I promise I'll be back -- see you guys soon.

Just got it, and I heard the touchscreen takes some getting used to. Not true -- it's incredibly responsive and accurate immediately, and I've never used a touchscreen before. Truly very impressed with this phone initially.

My grandpa decided to stop his dialysis treatment, so he is not going to live to see December. When he dies, I am not going to take it very well, so don't expect to see me around much until late 2008/early 2009.
