As many (but not all) Cal-pals know, I am a tech geek of the 1980′s school. I started computer programming with a brand-new Commodore 64, and I’ve never looked back. I love gadgets. My new iPhone 4 came today and I LOVE it! Review to come!

Sigh. Apple, I love so many things about you, but an evil heart beats within that pretty shiny body. Your iPhone is storing a file containing geolocation data of everywhere you’ve been, whether you want it to or not. I love my iPhone. I’ve jailbroken it, made it over in my own image and pushed…
