Full admission.  I love my iPhone.  I love what it does for me and how it enables me to conduct business/stay in touch with loved ones no matter where I am or when.

That being said, if you're an iPhone user, the picture above makes you twitch.

Our lives are a NEVER ENDING SERIES OF IOS UPGRADES!

Now, get a load of this.  Apple has sent out a warning to some iPhone and iPad users to update their software by Sunday or lose the ability to connect to the internet.

The affected Apple devices range from 2012 and earlier and need to be updated or you'll lose iCloud, App Store, email, and web browsing capabilities.

The need to update these devices comes from the GPS time rollover issue which happens every 19 years.
So if you have an iPhone 5, 4, or cell-enabled iPad mini, iPad 2, or third-generation iPad we're talking to you specifically. You've been warned.

UGH!

Debbie, where's my iPad 2? <g>
