TUAW Best of the Week
Welcome to the latest installment of TUAW's best of the week, where we gather up our favorite posts for your easy clicking enjoyment. Apparently, there was some phone released this week, but we didn't get the memo on it.
Apparently Apple is a little mad after the charges Rogers would be putting on the iPhone customers. So what does Apple do? They divert shipments of iPhones. Brilliant! Now all of Canada is mad about not getting a 3G, eh?

Both Apple and Amazon started selling/shipping boxed version of MobileMe this week. Even though you probably weren't able to use MobileMe until after the 48 hour maintenance was cleared up. However, Amazon is giving MobileMe hopefuls a small discount.

Wow, one of your "Best of the Week", a "favorite post", is the made-up rumor-mongering about Apple supposedly cutting off its own nose to spite Rogers' face?
Does any thought go into compiling this list or is it just selected by a random number generator? Or maybe each author on the blog gets to nominate his or her own favorite post by him- or her-self?
These posts are mostly crap. The only one with legitimate merit to be called a "Best of the Week" is Brett Terpstra's interview with the Spanning Sync guy. The rest? Posts consisting of little more than notifications that software releases have occurred, an odious, unsourced urban legend style wish-fulfilment rumor, Erica Sadun trolling, and the regular "here's what's free on iTunes this week" story.
Is the concept of "Best of the Week" really what these posts reflect? Or are they actually just "5 posts from this week"?
