Lovely Post by Kottke on iPhone

I love Jason Kottke's post about the iPhone. While everyone else is offering opinion, Jason built himself a model out of cardboard, so he could compare its size to other consumer devices. A lovely example of the maker ethic at work. Don't just talk about it. Do something to make it concrete! Here's one of several pictures he posted of his model:

Crestor.
Crestor is a cholesterol-lowering medication that blocks the production of cholesterol (a type of fat) in the body. It works by reducing levels of "bad" cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein, or LDL) and triglycerides in the blood, while increasing levels of "good" cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein, or HDL).
