By The jury is still out on whether rolling through the T-Mobile G1 Press Conference sporting roller blades was a cool thing to do or not…. errrr…. maybe not. Presenting a “revolutionary” product with a product popularized (and past its prime) a decade earlier seems to send a mixed message, does it not?

Ha, I thought it was fun. I guess I didn’t really care that they were on roller blades, to me I thought, they seem more grounded to reality and more open to have fun than to worry about if someone thinks their roller blades are uncool.
