  • Congress Considers iPhone.   The iPhone may soon be a new option for congressional members by the next Congress in January 2009. After "a lot of people" made the request for an iPhone, the Chief Administrative Office (CAO) that oversees the House's communications technologies has begun a small test to see whether the device is a viable option for Congress.
  • While you and I can buy iPhones for $199 or $299, I wonder how much Congress, the home of the $600 hammer, will pay for them?
  • Turn your blog into an iPhone app.  At least  your blog's RSS feeds.  You're just one click away from Adam Warner.

  • And get this, Solar Power is not just for electricity.  The Sun can also be used to warm the Earth.  Who knew? 
  • Okay, actually the article says Solar Power can generate steam at the new plant near Bakersfield, CA.  In case you need your shirts pressed before you head up the Grapevine towards Los Angeles.
  • The solar plant will provide electricity for 3500 homes in Central California.  I wonder how much it costs...  Besides lots of acreage.
