So, my iPhone is out of space for making a video. No problem, I just add an external storage device like every other phone. ooh awkward. you can't. OK, so I delete some stuff, and then find out that I have to "super duper" delete it until it counts. That gives me maybe 45 seconds of video. So, I decide to try to hook up the iphone to the computer that doesn't start with an i. The computer couldn't see the data. OK, so I download itunes, because I totally wanted a song sharing who knows what thing on my laptop. So I want to just get the pictures, copy them, and then paste them into a directory on the laptop. Of course you can't do that. Instead I hit "sync", and it "backs up" who knows what, and who knows where. So, I don't know if it's really safe to erase the stuff on the phone now or not. The files don't appear to actually exist on my computer. How on earth is it that there are more than like 2 people on planet earth that bought this pile of crap.

I mean, "i photos" are still data, right? They may even be in a format that computers that don't originate with apple could read. Why is this so complicated!!
