Got my new Sprint AmbassadorPhone today, as I imagine a bunch of other bloggers did as well. I tried the music store, the software is dorky but I was able to easily get a few songs to play over the speaker. I tried hooking it up to my MacBook using the provided USB cable, but no-go, and since my Windows laptop is at my other house, I couldn't try it out today. The packaging is very nice. Has a built-in FM transmitter (haven't tried it yet). It has a web browser, but I haven't yet figured out how to enter a URL so I haven't been able to try one of the rivers out. They do have news, but the UI is molasses-like.  

I went for a hike today with the parents in the hills. 

Muslims who demand an apology from the Pope for insulting Islam would have more credibility if they demanded Ahmadinejad apologize for saying the Holocaust never happened. Think that'll ever happen? Nahh.
