Do you have a 401k with mutual funds?  Do look for best return on investment or are you looking for where those $$$ are invested?   8)

I upgraded to iPhone5 from an older 3G model that had a battery that was getting real tired. I really love the iPhone5, the speed is absolutely amazing on 4G-LTE.as for Apple maps...I find it absolutely amazing...give it a chance before pitching it out the 3d view is amazing...ya sure there are some glitches but think back Gogle maps was riddled with errors when it first launched. I was disappointed that Apple didn't make the screen wider as well as longer. Apple upgraded the power/data cable to the lightning plug...it is better at transfering data and power. I plan on buying an adaptor when they are available. The droids are one way to go, but I didn't want to abandon my purchased apps so that was afactor in favor of staying with iPhone.

Don't buy an iFone 5, none of you. I'm short in AAPL

Two months, buy an iFone. And an iPad too, I don't care :)

Kick the 75% of crap Chinese restaurants out is a good start.

And that war has been over for how long, and who ever dreamed that Japan would end up as our allies?  ;)  So telling China to kiss our arse could eventually happen, and it needs to happen.

Because 5 is a numerically larger than 4.
I was hanging out at a cigar shop's lounger yesterday. A member of a group that was there was trying out the iPoo5's "new" panaoramic camera feature. My droid has been doing that for a while now...
