iPhone replaced under warranty. Modem hardware had gone kaput.
On standby at Doncaster Apple Store for a Genius Bar appointment to get my bricked iPhone replaced.
Home and firehosed.
@Sffarlenn_net It boots fine; it just can't communicate with the SIM, nor does it know its IMEI. Google says it's dead.
My iPhone has died quite suddenly. AppleCare not open on Christmas Day. :(
@DrCris Nope. I was watching Star Trek. :-)

@DrCris Tell MrJ I said he fails at Christmas.

Thanks to @instapaper I have all of 24 ways on my Kindle to take with me on holiday. :-)

Going to bed with my Kindle—an unexpected and very thoughtful early Christmas gift. Can’t wait to put SitePoint books on it! :-)
@kennethjaysone Fixed now! The order was automatically flagged as suspicious; I’ve cleared that flag so you should now be good to go.
@kennethjaysone DM me your order number and I’ll check it out.
@kennethjaysone What kind of problems? Our video download server may be overwhelmed at the moment, but PDF downloads should be fine.
Would it be too much to ask for @neilhimself ’s next novel to be released as a DRM-free ebook that I can buy in Australia?
Yay! My Kindle is now full of stuff to read! Geekgasm. This I swear: I will not purchase a single piece of DRM-encumbered content for it.
Hooray, I have a Kindle! Oh wait, none of the Secure eReader books I bought will work on it. Serves me right. #brokenbydesign #drmfail
