Yesterday I made the trip up to San Francisco to join my friend Nick Murray and his dad Mike at Macworld Expo. The expo consists of hundreds of booths showcasing third party Mac-related products and one huge central display by Apple itself. Most of the third party products were unremarkable at best: a relatively pedestrian smorgasbord of iPod covers and speakers. Apple, however, managed to make quite the splash.

Let's not beat around the bush. I have yet to to recover from the prodigious world-rocking meted out by the iPhone demo. Never before have I witnessed such life changing potential contained within a compact exemplar of consumer electronics masterpiece. In order to emphasize my dire impatience for the iPhone's release I have crafted this crude count down clock.

I will refine the clock's accuracy when the exact release date is announced.
