Haha... it's here and charging. I have an unlimited text/data plan.
I've been told about the battery life. I might buy a bigger battery if it's all that bad. Most of the time it'll be plugged in on my desk or on the side of the bed at home. It only has to last for a few hours on weekends and a few hours in the evenings.

I too, have seen the “Fast and Furious” teen action films and if I were still a testosterone-charged 19-year old, I’d likely be bugging my folks to help me buy a turbo-charged import compact car. But those films are no excuse for the way kids drive, especially around Robert Morris University in Moon.
I often take the long way to the North Side Trib office from my crib out near Sewickley and I’m yet to make the journey without some pimply-faced kid challenging me to a race the length of University Boulevard. Just today, I was tailgated by a pair of Mustangs, only to have them both whip around me- keep in mind I was doing a healthy 60 in a 45 zone while these kids were railing somewhere around 80MPH - with just inches to spare. One dropped her car down a gear to chirp tire as she gestured me to join their after-school Grand Prix. Hate to break it to ‘ya kids, but I'm not taking the bait. Race a car on a busy public road like this and somebody is going to end up represented by one of those hokey little roadside grave markers. Of all the knuckleheaded places to test your rudimentary driving skills, University Boulevard has got to be one of THE worst in the entire county.
Lines with automobile dealerships for most of its length, this road is rife with cross-traffic, car-carriers discharging their wares and plenty of commuters too focused on their cell phone conversations to take heed of speeding teenagers. Worst yet, it amazes me, particularly after I’ve taken dozens of motorcycle training classes, how young people are most interested in high-performance driving at precisely the age when they have the least experience and ability to make the sort of mature, sensible judgements necessary for fast, safe motoring. Here’s an idea- maybe the administrators at Robert Morris University can schedule credited courses on mature driving at a local race track.....
