Well the 120 is gone. I showed it to a friend and it he traded me a I-Omega
Jaz for it. So now I have a 130 (48 hours old) and three people want it. If
Apple has the slightest clue about anything they couldn't make them fast
enough.

I mean let's think about it. A 130 could easily sell for $499.00. People
are paying $299 for a Pilot and it is just an address book and day planner.
I can convert metric to english, get e-mail, web, fax, figure out tips for
a party of 12 on a $266.00 bill, play Blackjack, Magic 8 ball, AND have a
date book, note pad, and to do.

Apple just fucks up again and again. . .

As to your original question, don't wear such tight jeans and you can carry
it with you. And yes, I actually have to try (after one week) NOT to carry
it everywhere.

I know that, you know that, it's Apple that doesn't know that.
