Hey, I just discovered my iPad is now a wifi hotspot.

This is new, I'm sure. They did a big software upgrade a week or so back, another thing they added to it is Siri.

I've enjoyed torturing her with questions such as "Siri, why is the sun so hot?" Dumb stuff like that, just to see what answers I get.

But the ability to use it as a hotspot is pretty cool.

All I have on my floor right now is a lot of dog hair, I didn't vacuum this morning, I had to leave the house REALLY early (5:00 am).

One cannot tip the vessel of technology too quickly.

Start with the plow and maybe the weaving loom.

THEN we can explain Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing.

All I know is I bought it 5 weeks ago, it's the AT&T enabled, and it was $829 (I believe, somewhere around that give or take $10 bucks).

I don't know what an upgrade will do, I guess just try it.
