Ian,

The lesson I am learning here is that my computer and my phone are so tightly 
integrated in to my day job and I have come to depend on them.  I am now 
exploring ways to decouple them from my work which does not mean doing things 
differently but doing some things the way I use to before I became so heavily 
dependent on Apple.  I am slowly learning that you can't really depend on any 
company to always do the right thing and thats to bad.
