I don't know if I should be proud or disappointed that I'm Korean.

I would say be proud, Andrew.

However, that doesn't mean go out tomorrow and get a t-shirt made that says sausage + i-phone + korea = I've got "Seoul"

We will just keep this our little Joystiq secret:p Now, let us never speak of it again.

I can't help but wonder what Andrew would have written had he been the one to write this post, instead of simply writing the first comment 14+ hours in advance of the post's arrival. Probably couldn't beat Hinkle's tags, though.

You know what works for the iPhone as well? A grape, I've tried it before and it does work!
BTW I'm typing this comment with my iPod Touch :)

I like that the guy further away from the camera has his pinky extended. That's some classy sausage usage there.

For once, the Koreans are behind - I've been using my sausage for the past 2 years.

It's not recommended that you play with your sausage in public.

find a restroom or a room with a locking door.

Anyone know why?

My friend told me that the iPhone has a glass screen, and uses the heat from your fingers to identify when you touch the screen.. That might be why..

It doesn't use heat, it uses electrical conductivity. If you touch it with something that isn't electrically conductive like human skin, it doesn't work.

Can't you get iPod gloves? Surely those would work with touch screens too?

Hopefully starving children don't know about this since they should be using their money for food instead of internet.

I thought that the iPhone and iPod Touch required a warm contact point to function in order to prevent random pocket dialing. Will cold contact points work?

I have to agree that the post was pretty irrelevant. Anyway, for his enlightenment, iPhone is equipped with what is commonly known as capacitive touchscreen. It effectively eliminates any accidental poking other than your finger because it only registers touch from a conductive material. Also the size of touch is programmed to match the average size of your fingertip. So it would be difficult to use a stylus. They could potentially add another layer of heat sensors, but this would require too much complexity for almost no additional benefit. It might even give more hassle than being without.

'Cause Koreans are extremeists. They like things either blisteringly hot or freezing cold and they've got to sway back and forth between every new room you enter. Since the insides of trains hot enough to cook said sausages, the stations themselves have to be freezing cold in order to maximize one's chance of developing a cold.

Well it's a good thing the found something to do with those things because they are nasty to eat. Calling those sticks sausages does a diservice to real sausages.
