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://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39333</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Innocent as a dove you will harm no one, but wise as a serpent no one will harm you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20975]]></link><description><![CDATA[Innocent as a dove you will harm no one, but wise as a serpent no one will harm you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20975</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fame: an embalmer trembling with stage fright. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15125]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fame: an embalmer trembling with stage fright.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fire tries gold, misery tries brave men. [Lat., Ignis aurum probat, misera fortes viros.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42767]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fire tries gold, misery tries brave men. [Lat., Ignis aurum probat, misera fortes viros.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42767</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most of our so-called reasoning consists in finding arguments for going on believing as we already do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53128]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most of our so-called reasoning consists in finding arguments for going on believing as we already do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53128</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An ideal wife is one who remains faithful to you but tries to be just as charming as if she ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15637]]></link><description><![CDATA[An ideal wife is one who remains faithful to you but tries to be just as charming as if she weren't.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15637</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May you never forget what is worth remembering, nor ever remember what is best forgotten ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48555]]></link><description><![CDATA[May you never forget what is worth remembering, nor ever remember what is best forgotten]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48555</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[See he doesn't respect you.

I had made myself the centre of my own existence and had my back turned to God. All the beauty and truth which I had discovered had come to me as a reflection of his beauty, but I had kept my eyes fixed on the reflection and was always looking at myself. But God had brought me to the point at which I was compelled to turn away from the reflection, both of myself and of the world which could only mirror my own image. During that night the mirror had been broken, and I had felt abandoned because I could no longer gaze upon the image of my own reason and the finite world which it knew. God had brought me to my knees and made me acknowledge my own nothingness, and out of that knowledge I had been reborn. I was no longer the centre of my life and therefore I could see God in everything.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe in the supreme worth of the individual and in his right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62352]]></link><description><![CDATA[I believe in the supreme worth of the individual and in his right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The crux is that the vast majority of the mass of the universe seems to be missing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60210]]></link><description><![CDATA[The crux is that the vast majority of the mass of the universe seems to be missing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60210</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Praise the sea; on shore remain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27839]]></link><description><![CDATA[Praise the sea; on shore remain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27839</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There was the whole transition thing, me being the new guy.
