I also have had this MacBook for a while now.

On the MacBook, you can use 2 fingers on the track pad to scroll. Obviously, 2 fingers going down on the trackpad scrolls down. Two fingers up scrolls up. Amazing. I use it all the time. Love it.

Recently though, I have noticed myself thinking 'lets scroll down' and my fingers 2 finger scroll up. My mind says 'wth' and my fingers do it right. You know how it is, it happens quickly and you you think nothing of it. It just now dawned on my it is a result of the fact that the MacBook and the iPhone do OPPOSITE motions for scrolling.

It is kinda frustrating. Opposite paradigms for the same thing. Both make sense.

A couple years ago I decided that I wasn't traveling or commuting very much, so I really only needed a phone, not much more. Then I left the other job and started mk2 development and I am spending more time caring about things that I was ignoring outside of 9-5, so I decided I needed a new phone.

When the iPhone came out, I was excited, but the lack of unlocking and the lack of 3rd party apps was a problem. Time fixed that, and I finally picked one up the other day, an 8gb iPhone.

Having a decent web browser is nice. Having real time email is great. Being able to do most of the stuff I do on the internet whereever is nice. I won't bother with a big review, since chances are you have heard of this iPhone thing. Suffice to say that while it doesn't do everything I want, it is close and the things I miss are probably possible or will be soon.

Things I would like:

an easy way to ftp into a server, edit an html/php file, and save it. I would prefer not to have to ssh in and use vi or anything. I just want to be able to make a minor changes to webpages on the road if needed.

decent task manager. Why apple can't sync todos with their other apps (iCal) is beyond me.

I am sure there are others, but I can't think of them now...
