Vladimir Putin, Placido Domingo lost in iPhone
A brief, one column article in today's culture section of Helsingin Sanomat caught my eye. The general and artistic director of St.Petersburg's world famous Mariinsky Theater, Mr. Valery Gergiev was visiting Turku music festival in Finland. During the festival, a very hush-hush undercover operation was launched to find Mr. Gergiev's lost iPhone. The phone contained direct phone numbers to people like Vladimir Putin, a number of Russian oligarchs, Placido Domingo, Esa-Pekka Salonen and other classical music superstars.
The phone was lost during a sauna evening after their second concert in Turku. It was later recovered from awoken taxi driver during early morning hours. Mr. Gergiev was reported to be very relieved.
The article doesn't tell wether Mr. Gergiev was worried that the secret phone numbers of his VIP friends would be going to wrong hands, possibly forcing Mr. Putin to change his phone number, or it the concern was that he himself would lose those numbers. The latter would imply that the Mariinsky Theater is not taking full advantage of the technical capabilites of today's smartphones.

Locating the lost iPhone should have been simple enough using the "Find My iPhone" feature: http://www.apple.com/mobileme/news/2009/06/find-my-iphone-now-available.html
If the unit was lost for good, then Mr. Gergiev could have used the remote wipe feature to securely erase the phone (OTA) and then restore the contacts via his iTunes backup to his next iPhone. One also hopes that Mr. Gergiev used a pass key to lock his phone.

If you bought the damn app on the iPhone 3G and then re- downloaded it on your machine or another machine, you can do that gazzilion times free-of-charge.. I just tried it on 3 different iPhones..
However, looking at how 3.0 will be free for the 3G while not free for the iTouch, i assume it has something to do with that message you got.. I think they actually did you a favor by allowing a free download via

Four decades into a legendary Met career, tenor Plácido Domingo makes history singing the title role in Verdi's gripping political thriller, Simon Boccanegra. The opera will be broadcast live in high definition at Town Hall Theater, Middlebury on Saturday, February 6.

It seems that no amount of hard work or willpower could transform Placido Domingo into the baritone for whom Verdi wrote the title role of his opera "Simon Boccanegra.

The screen is not nearly as easy to read as the IPhone and lacks features like the ability to turn the screen sideways for a wide screen effect. Add to this the annoying problem of dust getting under the screen, which is very hard to remove.

Most dramatic programming for TV falls within other standard categories such as miniseries made-for-TV movies or certain rather circumscribed dramatic genres.
