MD140 - 3G iPhone Street Test
![]() <-- View our previous episode! |
We managed to get our hands on a pre-release 3G iPhone, direct from Apple. We took the phone onto 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica to see what people think about Apple’s hottest new gadget.

Utterly hilarious up to the point of the blooper. That kid succeeded in making me feel old. :(

So do you pay ASCAP & BMI for the music you use in the podcasts ?
June 11th, 2008 at 3:26 am

June 11th, 2008 at 4:39 am
Hilarious! Creative and fun……Nice job.

I don’ care about the added goodies, until the activate some basic phone functions such as importing contacts from a sim card and voice dialing without me having to jailbreak the device I’m staying away from it.
June 11th, 2008 at 6:32 am
I think I used to have a phone like that! Thanks for the laugh.
June 11th, 2008 at 7:00 am
Oh my goodness Leah is such a perfect new host. She has a great sense of humor and is beautiful to watch. This coming from a guy who was completely bummed when Veronica left the show. Keep up the great work Leah…you rock!!
June 11th, 2008 at 7:06 am
Funny, Funny, Funny…I’ll be laughing all the way to work this morning.
Leah…do you think you’ll ever be a guest on the Jay Leno program?
Great Job!
June 11th, 2008 at 7:12 am
I just remembered…I have a gadget like that …I was thinking I could donate it to the Museum.

“Do you think I’m high tech? Do you think I know what an iPhone is?”
Look, unless you live under a damn rock, the only way you wouldn’t know what an iPhone is is if you’re a damn idiot. Seriously.
June 11th, 2008 at 8:36 am
I’m the only one who wasn’t paid to digg this so far.
June 11th, 2008 at 8:54 am
LOL! These episodes just keep getting better and better! Love it. The girl at the end is serious! Funny. GREAT job Leah and Mahalo Daily.
June 11th, 2008 at 9:09 am
Very funny episode. So far I have enjoyed Leah’s first two episodes a lot. Mahalo Daily has gained a new viewer.
June 11th, 2008 at 9:11 am
Was that Jason Calacanis’ old phone?
June 11th, 2008 at 9:28 am
Sorry to say, but this was the worst episode ever. Not funny…not informative. Waste of everyone’s time. Sorry!
June 11th, 2008 at 9:28 am
WAY TO GO LEAH!!! You are so good! I hope i can visit u in LA! GOOD LUCK with the rest of your videos! ~tina
June 11th, 2008 at 9:37 am
I love every video Leah has!!!!!!!!!!!!! She is glamourous!!!!!!! And hilarious!!!!!! I LOVE MY COUSIN SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!! vp
June 11th, 2008 at 9:56 am
I have to say that this episode was very funny. You really had me going for about 2 seconds. Your quite nice looking. Veronica was a trip and your a nice replacement. hope to see more
June 11th, 2008 at 10:32 am
and big 80’s hair to go with it!
luv that Leah!!!!
June 11th, 2008 at 11:31 am
Looks like you can just throw Leah out there and get a good video.
June 11th, 2008 at 11:52 am
Leah is amazing. Love the gag,
June 11th, 2008 at 12:05 pm
AWESOME.
That earned some good solid laughs and restored my faith in the show. I especially loved the last moment – talk about a generation gap!!
June 11th, 2008 at 12:14 pm
Leah looks good holding an iPhone. :) show me more!
June 11th, 2008 at 1:33 pm
That was damn funny. Great job!
June 11th, 2008 at 1:57 pm
It’s just so ri-di-cu-lous!! Yeah, you got me. Keep ‘em coming Leah. You and your team are doing a great job. You’re obviously having fun - because I am. Thanks again Jason. You made the best choice.
June 11th, 2008 at 2:34 pm
That would be sweet to be using that while I’m driving my 1985 Olds Cutlass down the road( that I still own by the way) listening to Madonna. Oh, how I miss those 80’s. That was hilarious! Great job Leah I’m hooked.
June 11th, 2008 at 3:33 pm
Great show !!
Leah is a refresher in the web, and I’m sure Lon’s mind is all over this episodes…
Nice job !!
June 11th, 2008 at 3:46 pm
Sorry, but this is getting lame. Is Mahalo going to be a sketch comedy show now or is it going to be similar to what we had with Veronica? Because so far things don’t look good…
June 11th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
Leah is so very good, and is obviously only going to get better. Fantastic. My money was on her from day one. Excellent.
June 11th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
Cole:
Don’t you think you would need more than three episodes to determine the entire thrust of a show? I mean really, give the girl a chance to get situated and such.
June 11th, 2008 at 6:07 pm
Poor girl, she either does things that are too serious or too funny. Remember, Mahalo is not Tekzilla and Leah is not Veronica. I agree with your statement Vinny. 3 shows do not a year make. I will look forward to each episode as Mahalo Daily with the new host develops.
Leah is multi-faceted and the team is quite talented. If anyone has suggestions for future shows let the team know. “They are here to help.” Keep up the good work Mahalo Team!
June 11th, 2008 at 6:27 pm
O.K. you got me. That was a good one! Can’t wait until tomorrow.
June 11th, 2008 at 6:47 pm
I really like the style of Leah’s last few videos. Very entertaining and great fun to watch! (I’m sure I’ll learn something along the way too).
I hope this continues - MD is rapidly becoming one of my favourite podcasts :-)
June 11th, 2008 at 7:32 pm
Leah is cool…”That’s what I’m talking about.”
June 11th, 2008 at 8:10 pm
This was a really fun MOTS–everyone had a great reaction to our “iPhone 3G”. Seems like most of you liked this episode! Again, if you have suggestions for show topics or even a MOTS question, let me know! You can contact me on:

I absolutely love this girl!
Regards from Colombia!
June 11th, 2008 at 10:17 pm
OMG.. I thought it was for real !! when Leah first announced that they had the new 3G IPhone, I thought, “Oh wow ! What a coup.. they got a preview of the new phone”
Ha ha ha ! I shoulda known…
Great job ! very funny ! Love it.. can’t wait for more !
June 11th, 2008 at 10:29 pm
just think what the battery life would be like if the iphone had a battery that size. you would not need to charge it but once a week. and that is with leaving on the wifi and gps. Nice podcast.
June 12th, 2008 at 12:44 am
Leah, will you Mahalo on my maliki mali hula??? We can talk on the new iPhone while I give you the one, two Mahalo!!!
June 12th, 2008 at 1:11 am
Leah is so frakkin hot. And so naturally gifted as a host, too. Wow, I’m in love <3
June 12th, 2008 at 1:13 am
Loved it, loved it! I was anxiously waiting to see the new iphone… and then that brick was pulled out. LOL
June 12th, 2008 at 1:54 am
Great job Leah. I didn’t even know you moved, let alone moved up. It’s nice to see a familiar face.
June 14th, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Leah is really coming into her own now. Cute and very funny.. Keep up the great work guys
June 21st, 2008 at 3:23 pm
Haha, that was hilarious!
