iPhone moment

From the this is what it's all about files:

While standing in line, I wanted to talk to classicaljunkie, but she wasn't in a position to take phone calls, and I wanted more interactivity (and less cost) than SMS. So I hopped onto the iTunes App Store, downloaded and installed Google Mobile, and a moment later was yakking at her over GTalk. I did all this before shuffling forward a place in line.

I note this less as praise for Google and more as astonishment that I have a mobile device whose functionality I can alter on the fly, through the air, to fit an immediate need. Kuh-crazy.
