So here we are … Leopard’s been officially available for a few days now. We’re done with the launch parties, the big to-dos.

Thank goodness.

I’m already tired of hearing about it. Reflective dock this, time machine that. Don’t get me wrong. … I can’t wait to start using it, but the attention that should have been on the iPhone hasn’t been and that’s where I start to get annoyed.

What specifically? Well, there’s the echo that makes talking to people really annoying. The battery life is all messed up. I can’t hold a conversation half of the time because the volume is so low.

You know, stuff like that.

No mixed messages here. I love my iPhone. And I know I’ll love Leopard. But I’m just happy the attention should be turning a little away from Leopard and hopefully a little more toward the iPhone.

Apple has to get this stuff fixed. No way are Londoners going to stand for echoing when they are talking a walk. And it’s pretty loud in Paris, so folks will need to be able to hear the ringer.

And my take is pretty straightforward … If Apple can release the most advanced operating system on this or any other planet with an advanced civilization, surely they can take out the echo that they took out with the old software and reintroduced in this one.

And remember, Apple, there’s the list that I sent you that we all came up with here that told you all the things missing from the iPhone. I know you are working on it and I appreciate that, but I’d like to see a little less talking and a little more engineering.

Oh, but please don’t forget to fix my laptop first.

Thanks for calling.
