Quotes Oh, your complaints were endless

Remember way back to January 2007, when the iPhone was announced? Oh Internets, you wailed and gnashed your teeth endlessly. No 3G network? No MMS? No apps on the iPhone? No replaceable battery? Oh, your complaints were endless. You were sure that the iPhone was doomed because it didn’t meet all your requirements.

—Michael Pusateri to the those folks criticizing iPad before seeing one in his Message to the Internets regarding the iPad.

Dear Internets, remember the times when new stuff was exciting?

Oh Internets, you grew jaded and blasé.
