I picked up an iPhone this past Friday at the local Rogers wireless store out here. What can I say the 9 hour wait to finally activate the phone was worth it.
If you haven’t checked out the iPhone the best place to do so would be the Apple Store in Pacific Centre downtown. Although they don’t sell the phones (you have to go to a Fido or Rogers dealer for them) they have a bunch of them on display for you to play with. Best of all if you have any questions they have more than enough staff to answer them for you.
A few weeks ago my brother gave me a bottle of Gnarly Head Old Vine Zin for looking after his cat Verbal while he was away at the Junos in Calgary. I finally decided to crack it open and try it the other night.
Finally after waiting for almost 2 months our table we ordered is arriving today. We purchased a dining table from a furniture store that shall go unnamed because I will probably never order from there again because of the runaround in getting the table. But at least it is finally on the delivery truck.
The table we ordered is called the Chunk Dining Table from a company called Gus Modern out of Toronto.
Well it’s official, Apple now has a store in Vancouver. The grand opening was today at 10:00 am. Although I was in town today I decided to skip the opening because of the long lines. After all I have visited an Apple Retail store before when I was in Las Vegas and also because I really don’t need anything “Apple” related right now.
I just rrrolled up the rim and won a donut! I don’t really eat donuts but I think I will get a Boston Creme.
Last week Jason and I went to the SPCA and adopted a new cat into the family. Mr. Sawyer is his name and he is getting along great with The Monkey. He was in the SPCA awaiting adoption for over 6 months so needless to say he is glad he is in a new permanent home.

I will probably head there once the iPhone is available. In case you are interested MacSupport has some pictures from the opening day.

What do you think about Rogers/Fido selling iPhones exclusively?
Well I think is was inevitable that Rogers was going to be carrying the iPhone in Canada but I was actually surprised that Fido was going to be offering it as well. I am a little disappointed that you will not be able to order an iPhone 3G online through the Apple store online or through an Apple retail store. I guess that is the price we have to pay for getting a subsidized iPhone.
I do think that Rogers really dropped the ball by not allowing pre-orders through their website though. For the announcement they should have really had the pricing plans and the ability to pre-order ready to go. But as usual Rogers fashion we are left in the dark until closer to July 11th.
