Ok, wtf is the widescreen keyboard ONLY available in safari on iPhone??? it should be in Mail and SMS at LEAST. Damn you Jobs!!!!!

Lucky to have avoided catching whatever it is that @howardlindzon got, but drinking a scotch to kill any latent micro organisms.
Awesome mail day. New 3g laptop card and @sgangster shirts.
Starting a company is quite an addictive experience (so far).
