Now this is just pissing us off: Gizmodo watched CSI last night and caught Tim Blake Nelson shimmying through an electrical conduit, using an iPhone flashlight app to light his way. Amazingly, the most insulting moment isn't when Justin Long some hipster detective says, "There's an app for that," but when the iPhone rings in this metal tube in the bowels of a building and Justin Long some hipster detective says, "That phone has outstanding reception." Lesson learned: AT&T service is so lousy, it takes a team of CSI detectives to find a spot where an iPhone gets "outstanding reception."
