Dang Ole' Danggers in Slogans

I was playing with the Advertising Slogan Generator using the word 'dangger', and these are a few gems it randomly created:

My iPhone is a Sexy Brick

So I get home tonight and hook my iPhone up to my computer so I can update the firmware to the latest 2.0.1 which I read about today, and it's now just a sexy brick. I am stuck in some kind of infinite loop where it tries updating the firmware, then says there was some error and it needs to restore, then when I try to restore it throws up this message:

My iPhone has been rather crashy from the get-go, but this is just icing on the cake. I want to love it, but I dont think it likes me very much. I'm not sure what to do next. Do I take it back to AT&T? It's my only source of phone and now I cant use it.

Update:
After a few hours of trying over and over to get the restore to work in desperation, it finally took hold with a restore. Now, whenever I hook up my iPhone to my computer I'm presented with 2 options: Restore from backup or set up as a new phone. I can't get to any files or sync or anything. When I choose restore from backup, it starts the whole process again, only to take me back to the same damn screen with the 2 choices all over again. My only options being to set up as a new iPhone, I did that, but somehow it kept my e-mails and notes and settings, just got rid of my music and pictures. I seriously hate iTunes y'all. This has me pissed off enough to be considering returning my iPhone while I've still got my buyers remorse window.

Insult to Injury

Gee. Glad I paid for Super Duper OMG Fast shipping.

AT&T = Whizbang Fizzledanggers (Updated)

(Lexy, that title was for you)

I can has iPhone? No.

Mike, in case you were wondering where I was this morning (I don't have your cell # saved for some reason, only home #), I got up at 4AM this morning and hopped online before I was going to get ready to go, and read on macrumors.com that good ole' AT&Taint aren't allowing current customers to get the iPhone today unless they qualify for the standard upgrade pricing.
Since I will have to pay the early upgrade price, I'm pretty for sure they don't want my business today. I'm sitting here right now (it's 5:30) trying to get confirmation of this, but several people have all said the same thing.

Thanks AT&T! It's not like I've been a customer for over 6 years and paid you thousands of dollars or anything. You go get those new customers. Go get 'em!

Update:
So, it turns out, you shouldn't believe everything you read on the internet. While it turns out a lot of AT&T's were treating existing customers like cock monsters this morning, just as many were playing fair including the one here in Jefferson City. Unfortunately, they sold out of iPhone within an hour, as did most stores from what I hear. Talk about being unprepared (Or was the iPhone a bigger hit than anticipated?) Anyway, I signed up for the lame-ass direct fulfillment, which means one will be shipped to the AT&T store for me to pick up within a few days, and I even had to pay shipping. Balls, that sucks. At least I'm guaranteed one though.

Barack and Hillary, Sitting in a Tree...

Ok. so I know that Barack and Hillary want to convey a sense of Unity, hence their campaigning together in Unity, N.H. today, but I think the image above, chosen as abcnews.com's headline photo almost looks like they're about to get a little too united. Anyone else agree?

I dunno. senator on senator action just doesn't do much for me.
