And yet you found a way to turn this into an advert for the iPad, by quoting in the last paragraph a few heavy names from the so called "A-list".
If you got hacked, you're in good company, you're part of an elite group of individuals, you're on the "A-list", no need to be angry at AT&T or Apple for anything. This is a "good" thing. You've just been promoted from a B-grade parasite to an A-grade individual.
Gotta love the internet.
