I said: I will not be buying an iPhone until they sell an unlocked version that doesn’t need to be hacked to use third party applications. The iPhone 3G does have 3rd party apps, but they have to be vetted, etc. by Apple, which is a mixed bag.

Woe to the nonprofit that incorrectly assumes that a new media manager is a tech position. They cannot rigidly attach themselves to any current social network design or functionality because changes often occur overnight and without warning. Good Writing Skills.
