what’s the best way to deliver mattresses through an app?
What?! You mean there's NOT an app for that?!

The ultimate 'gadget' for me would be one that will remember the thought I had about making a calendar reminder that I didn't... I know, I should try Siri... I just don't like talking to a 'robot', especially one that asks for more details! wallbash.gif

Speaking of Siri, can 'she' understand what "Just go away!" or "Never mind!" means? Thinking.gif Just because I pressed a certain button for a certain minimum amount of time does not mean I actually meant to!!!
