    More than half of Verizon’s customer base wants them to get the iPhone

    It's been said before, but let it be said again: Verizon better be kicking themselves right now. Not only did they not fight for the iPhone, they outright turned it away. This new 4,000-person survey by ChangeWave probably isn't going to make them feel much better.

No surprise: the Xbox 360 leads the pack with a full 60 percent of heaving died (due to the red ring of death).

    K: Y’all sent 740 billion text messages in the first half of 2009

I wonder how many of those are the always useful “k” message.

    According to survey of 2,300 Japanese retail stores, the iPhone was #1 in customer popularity, beating out all of those crazy, wonky phones they sell in Tokyo with names like the WonderFetus 100 Softbank X200-900 and the Brad Pitt Special Edition E900 from Sanyo with built-in TV tuner, can-opener, and fishing lures.
