I think @nevenmrgan put it best when he tweeted,

Theory: Apple skipped the oleophobic coating on the iPad so you’d clean it by rubbing on your shirt, thus reinforcing the raw sexual bond.

Well, somebody must have been listening.

The other worldly iPhone may land on Verizon, and it may not. Much like the chances of an asteroid hitting Earth, we just don’t know what will happen. But if the Apple Corporation finally does invade with red flags in hand, the people of AT&T may abandon ship. According to 9 to 5 Mac, Davenport  and Co. analyst, F. Drake Johnstone estimates 40% of all iPhone owning AT&T customers may swim ashore on Verizon’s lands, which might explain AT&T’s recent Early Termination Fee updates.

…But as I’ve already said, jumping on Verizon probably won’t solve anything. So don’t be stupid! If demand for the iPhone is high enough, people will be quick to expose any all problems Verizon does and will have with their business and network. People, Verizon isn’t your savior. It’s the entire infrastructure that needs fixing.

What’s a student to do when he has wads of cash to spend? Buy a MacBook of course. Because not only are you getting Apple’s usual education discount (that lasts year round), you’re getting a free iPod touch, Classic, Nano, or Shuffle thrown in. But you might as well just get the iPod touch.

Well, at least we’re almost there. In two weeks or so we’ll know everything about the new iPhone, served hot by Steve Jobs himself on the WWDC stage. Engadget is reporting that Apple is already looking out for actors for the upcoming commercials of the new iPhone, which (according to a trusted source) will be about the new video chat features.

What, the new iPhone does video chat?

You should start reading Vietnamese forums, brotha. You really should.

Mac Rumors is reporting that iPhone stock is getting slim in some places, and that Apple has stopped supplying new iPhones to AT&T stores. If you were in the mood to get a new device, wait, because new ones are probably on the way. In some places, such as Australia, the iPhone 3G can’t even be purchased anymore. So it looks like the iPhone 3GS might be our new $99 standard, while the next generation iPhone will continue to be priced at $199.
