The Day of iBrickage

So here’s the thing: I’m not complaining. I’m really not. I’m just anxious.

This morning I packed up my laptop to bring it to work with me for the sole purpose of updating my iPhone to sweet, sweet 2.0. Already have my coveted apps downloaded and ready to roll and as usual for me when it comes to gadgets and boy toys, I simply couldn’t stand to wait another minute.

In the office, I checked around the web to see what was going on in the land of 2.0 updates. It didn’t look good. The news all over was bad and people far and wide proclaimed the arrival, at last, of the iPocalypse.

Obviously, I had to see for myself.

Big mistake on my part. I trekked into this foreign land of firmware updatage at approximately 10:47am and still, as of 2:54pm, I am utterly and completely phoneless.

In other words, I fucked up.

Thankfully, the Twitterverse has been there to bolster my spirits with stories of success. As I sit here refreshing iTunes in an attempt to resucitate my poor, maligned iPhone, I can only long for that moment where I too shall proclaim victory.

In 140 characters or less.

Update: Okay, my new solution to every problem is to blog about it. Apparently, the moment you do that, things get done. Like my iPhone finally gets updated. Re-syncing all my content as we speak, looks like success has been met!
