It’s not often that I get to mention gadgets on the Apocalypse Blog, but if all goes well around this time next Friday I’ll have a Jesus Phone - I mean Apple iPhone - in my sweaty little hands. Who knows, maybe I’ll be able to blog from it, and will roam the world blogging about things apocalyptic.

Probably not so much (the roaming part, at least).

The apocalyptic element to the iPhone? It’s an article written by Josh Quittner wherein he waxes apocalytpic about the iPhone:

And on the 29th day of the sixth month, when the sun was at its lowest point in the sky, the Phones appeared, one after another, each in its tasteful white box without any adornment whatsoever. [...]

Given the hype and expectations surrounding the phone it seems that it will either save your soul or will destroy Apple’s future. I suspect that letting you talk to people, browse the web and do email, more-or-less, is more likely than the extremes. But we’ll see in a week as the latest creation from the Church of St. Steve lands.

[and yes, of course I'm a sucker for articles with the word "apocalypse" in the title]
