Redneck Hippie

I make pizza. I like books (goodreads.com/thatbeautifulday) and I say dumb things on twitter (twitter.com/appleastronaut). I recently got a pinterest, (pinterest.com/appleastronaut) which is full of vapid pictures and projects that I will never do, and i used to listen to music on my laptop (last.fm/user/appleastronaut) but i broke my computer. Also I don't understand hyperlinks. Hi!
soupsoup: Verizon iPhone 4 Details Available Feb 10th $199.99 for 16 GB $299.99 for 32 GB CDMA, EVDO network support, no LTE at this time. On Feb 3, existing Verizon customers can preorder the iPhone.  On Feb 10, everyone can order the device. The Verizon iPhone 4 will include a hotspot that will allow customers to connect up to 5 devices.  No voice and data usage at same time (limitation of CDMA network) Verizon did not provide specifics on pricing for tethering or any data plans. No global roaming. Slight difference in placement of mute button means many existing cases won’t work with the Verizon model of the iPhone. Personal note : The ability to use it as a WiFi hotspot makes it very attractive. If I understand this correctly, I can use it to get online with my iPad when I can’t find an open WiFi connection, using the Verizon iPhone 4’s mobile connection. Can someone confirm? Hat tip to @jennydeluxe for her excellent Twitter updates from the event. gettin dat, i’m gettin dat. even if it means i have to stick with my old shitty phone for another month and save my upgrade. Additional note: the fact that initial purchase is cheaper than a droid also makes it infinitely more attractive.
