I’m playing tag with UPS right now, but I’ve taken the plunge and ordered a 3G iPhone with 6GB/month 3G data access.

While having GPS will be nice, it’s the 3G data access I’m most looking forward to. I’ve already started to browse the apps store looking for productivity apps, and I’ve upgraded to Flickr Pro which I’ll be using to share my mobile pics.

Some of the apps that have really stood out so far are Evernote, Wordpress, reQall (speech-to-text!), and Wikipanion.

Just back from Europe and down to 172 from 190 2 months ago when this “diet” started. I’m back on the 30km bike 4 times a week which feels great.

My bike computer seems to push me harder… when I see that I’m going slower than average I have to pump it.

The hot weather is so much easier to deal with after losing a few pounds. It’s 32C today but we haven’t turned the A/C on yet {besides to check if it works :P}.
