Or rather my annoying behavior since I started playing with this stupid phone.
It is remarkable how much stuff is out there, now my kids have shown me a new program, Wolfram Alpha
Any of you seen this? It is a math calculator applied to almost everything. type in 2+2 and it will say four. Type in a calculus problem and it will plot the integrals and show you a lot of stuff you might be interested in. TYPE IN APPLE, AND LIKE A MATH PROBLEM, IT BEGINS, "ASSUME APPLE = BUSINESS". Then it pumps out REAMS of stuff. TYPE IN APPLES, and it will "Assume a fruit" and give you several pages of nutrition and agriculture info.
Very expensive but well worth the cost if only for the entertainment value. It makes the IPhone behave the way people thought computers would be before we actually got our hands on them. Amazing.

Stuff like that makes my teeth grind, but OK, so I spent like $20 on this "app" that is just the user/interface from iPhone to Wolfram Alpha. STILL worth it just for the entertainment. Great fun.
