Excellent choice

4. It's not a phone, it's a platform
And this is just the beginning. Platforms are for building on. Last month, after a lot of throat-clearing, Apple decided to open up the iPhone, so that you—meaning people other than Apple employees—will be able to develop software for it too. Ever notice all that black blank space on the iPhone's desktop? It's about to fill up with lots of tiny, pretty, useful icons.

No IMAP for me yet. What's up!?

If you are interested in the evolution of the modern GUI (graphical user interface) you should check out the excellent "Road to Leopard" series on AppleInsider.

More than just a look at the new Macintosh OS, the preview breaks down each component of Mac OS X and talks about the history of each, going all the way back to origins of the application.

The chronology is complete with screenshots to compare the old to the new. It is surprising to see how much difference there is between things now and just five years ago.

Just found out today that Google is rolling out IMAP support for all Gmail accounts over the next couple of days. This is great if you access your Gmail using a traditional mail application from multiple computers or devices (ahem...iPhone). Also, it should be the end of all the quirky settings and behavior produced by trying to get Gmail's pop service to have IMAP-esque features.
