I know that the iPhone got a lot of bad press for the things it can’t do but having converted from my XDA Orbit2 Windoze Mobile device I have to say my iPhone is a breath of fresh air.

Just added some Stereoironics (the no.1 Stereophonics tribute band) videos shot in our workshop to my YouTube channel…
