Adrian has committed the Django model syntax changes. Current models will have to be rewritten — once — but the new syntax looks a lot cleaner and I think it will reduce the learning curve for newcomers to the platform.
Be sure to check out the full documentation as well as a brief screencast highlighting the changes. I will do my best to update my CRUD Generic Views tutorial as soon as possible to reflect the syntax change.
Update: Here’s the updated tasks.py
Gizmodo notes that the 6682 is supposedly available from Cingular now, though it’s going to be a hot potato for some time. The Cingular online store has a “Maintenance In Progress” sign up, much like the Apple store “back soon” message, but oranger.
In other news, Lets Talk no longer lists the 7610 but doesn’t have the 6682 listed either. Amazon still says coming soon.
Like I said, this is going to be a hard phone to come by until stock levels improve. Good luck!
