    This guy I know who is probably around 75, called me a few months ago (I can't remember exactly, but probably no more than 3 months ago) he said, listen, I have to show you my new phone, once you see this, you are going to want this, I'm sure.. I know its expensive but its worth the money...

    So a few days later we meet for lunch and there he is, with his new iPhone.. you know what what the thing that was talking about?

    "if you take a picture of someone, you can save it on your phone, so next time that person calls you, his photo will show up on the screen"

    You will get puched if you actually "timeline" someone in real life, so out of respect, I did NOT showed him, that my 6 year old nokia phone does the same thing, and it was given to me for free by me phone provider.

    That was new to him.
