In this week’s edition: What? Surprised we’re here? Thought we’d be taking this edition off so we could play Super Monkey Ball or Bomberman Touch, or otherwise just hide in our tasteful Cupertino estates drooling over our totally awesome new, glossy plastic backed iPhone 3Gs? We did that last time. We totally had the device before Mossberg and like 99% of the people at Apple. Totally.

UPDATED: Okay, fine. The Commenterati have spoken. We’ll scour the interwebs. We’ll find something. You’ll get your fix. Anything to stop from harshening our pre-launch mellow!
