...What a brilliant piece of writing from Lev Grossman. I don't yet own an iPhone, but I plan to in the near future. Like Grossman, I'm sick of the sour grapes from naysayers who moan about what the iPhone doesn't do and ignore what it does do and just how well it does it. I hate my conventional cell phone with its 100-page, four-language manual that I can't begin to understand. I've used the iPhone without having to look at the manual. And the only language required is intuition. Brad Cathey, WHEATON...

SIA's attempts to stretch overseas through passenger-airline investments in India, the Philippines and New Zealand have turned sour. SIA took a $157 million loss on its investment in Air New Zealand. And a 49% stake in British-based Virgin Atlantic, bought in 1999 for $1.6 billion, has lost, by some estimates, almost two-thirds of its value, though many analysts think the deal will prove profitable in the long...
...gorgeous backdrop for the square's many outdoor cafes, art galleries and shops. The square is home to Fukier, the city's finest restaurant, whose sumptuous decor and attentive staff have been enjoyed by Presidents George Bush and Jacques Chirac--not, mind you, at the same time.
