iPhone? I don’t even have an iPod and have not figured out all the features on my 3 year old cell phone. Beginning to feel like I am falling (have fallen) behind the technology curve on consumer electronics – no, don’t have and LCD, LED or Plasma TV either {:>).

A number of guys on the RV list mention using some Amateur Radio network and a gadget to track their flights in real time – apparently anyone can follow the flight path over the internet – look out Flight Following, technology may render you obsolete.

Don't feel bad, Ed. I just got my first cell phone about a month ago. Business partner made me do it...mostly for the data access. I don't understand the imperative to pay huge sums of money to listen to music that I can get for free over the radio, or to be hounded by people wanting me to do stuff while I'm driving. But that's just me.
