Visiting Union Gospel Mission
John Chow, Stephen Fung, Greg Morgan and I were invited down to UGM today to have some lunch and hear about some of the new stuff they’ve been doing lately. We’re always glad to go down to UGM as well as help them raise some funds to help folks in need over the holidays.

So after debating it for awhile, I’ve finally gone ahead and bought myself an iPhone. I was going to drive down to Seattle and pick one up myself but after the horror that is the Canada/US border, I decided to wait to get one locally. I finally got a lead but it required me to drive to…um Surrey. I’m not sure which is better…lining up for four hours to get into America or driving around on roads with no street lights, trying not to get stabbed or carjacked along the way.
I’m also not about to pay some of the absurd prices some people are asking for imported iPhones since I can always drive down to Seattle but luckily, I was able to find one for pretty close to retail price.
Now I just have to work on unlocking this thing when it’s all done charging.

ReplyYou have to convince your wife? If it’s your money, it’s your decision.
ReplyI wouldn’t upgrade the firmware to 1.1.1 yet… Leave it at v1.0.2. v1.1.1 hasn’t been unlocked yet, or at least not in an easy way.
Replydid you take those pictures? nice…
ReplyCongrats on the phone! I’ve had mine a couple of weeks and love it so far. There are a few small quirks that I’d like to see fixed - namely being able to rotate the screen when texting and IM’ing…
I still have an old firmware version and thus, access to tons of 3rd party apps…
