Folks have been speculating about a phone from Apple for more than a year. Being that I am a wireless analyst, I don't follow Apple as closely as others do. What I do know though, is that we are not likely to know until Apple wants us to know. They are pretty good at big surprises. Do I think they are developing a phone? Probably. Probably somewhere in their labs, there are prototypes of phones. Whether or not they bring one to market commercially is another story. Whether or not they will do so on their own is another open question. Hard to imagine carrier subsidies on a device unless there are revenues to be earned through downloaded services and content.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39333</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is only one honest impulse at the bottom of Puritanism, and that is the impulse to punish the man ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20679]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is only one honest impulse at the bottom of Puritanism, and that is the impulse to punish the man with a superior capacity for happiness]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20679</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pygmies are pygmies still, though percht on Alps; And pyramids are pyramids in vales.

Nothing else will meet my case. There is something genuinely at stake in every man's life, the climax whereof is death. Dying is inevitable, but arriving at the destination God offers to me is not inevitable. It is not impossible to go out of the way and fail to arrive. Christian doctrine has always urged that life eternal is something which may conceivably be missed. It is possible to neglect this great salvation and to lose it eternally, even though no man may say that anything is impossible with God or that his grace may ultimately be defeated. I know it is no longer fashionable to talk about Hell, one good reason for this being that to make religion into a prudential insurance policy is to degrade it. The Faith is not a fire-escape.
