How I'd Wire Liz Lemon
30 Rock's Liz Lemon got an iPhone at the start of the 2008 season, and it was just the begging of Apple love for the show, which is sponsored by the company. In fact, Apple even used clips from the funny sitcom to show off the new Find My iPhone feature at June's WWDC, so we know the love is mutual. What type of tech do we expect — and hope — geeky gal Liz will rock this season?
Liz Lemon Gets an iPhone!
When 30 Rock returned Thursday night, I was mostly excited just to see one of my favorite TV geeks ever, Liz Lemon — and I wasn't disappointed. Actually that's an understatement, because Liz totally rocked my socks off when she revealed an iPhone!
I've never seen The Girlie Show's head writer with an iPhone before, so I totally appreciate the props decision for this season.

Apple Uses 30 Rock to Show Off Find My iPhone
Yesterday's WWDC event was an exciting place to be, especially since it was my first time at the annual conference. For those not as into tech, though, I admit that a developer's conference doesn't exactly sound scintillating, but Apple always does what it can to make their keynotes entertaining, like with musical guests. This year, my favorite pop culture reference was when they used a 30 Rock clip to demonstrate the need for the new Find My iPhone feature, with Liz Lemon being on the compromising end of a stolen iPhone and "adult photo."
Send Valentine's Day E-Cards From the 30 Rock Cast
Run-of-the-mill e-cards not doing it for you? How about sending a free Valentine's Day greeting from Liz Lemon and the rest of the 30 Rock gang?

30 Rock Rocks Apple
I freaked out a little bit when I saw that my favorite TV lady, Liz Lemon, got an iPhone this season (especially last week's totally realistic revelations of her not knowing how to decline a call or get past her password), but Apple products on 30 Rock are nothing new. Peep the slideshow to see the other places macs and iPhones have popped up!

The iPhone Is the Biggest-Selling Smartphone in the US
Steve Jobs is going to be ho-ho-hoing himself all the way to the bank this holiday season because Apple has sold a total of 13 million iPhones to date with a whopping 6.89 just in the last quarter of this year!
There's no denying the success of this glorious gizmo — heck, if Liz Lemon upgrades, there's no telling how high sales will get! Not only is the iPhone the top-selling smartphone of all time, but it is the second best-selling mobile handset in the US as well, with one in three iPhone purchasers switching phone carriers to become AT&T subscribers.
Did You Have a Beeper?
I saw a childhood friend at a birthday dinner a few weeks ago, and we got on the topic of how much communication and gadgets have changed since we were teenagers. On top of making us feel old, it evoked memories of our hoary pre-cell phone days. He actually reminded me that, for a brief (but oh so awesome!) time, I carried a beeper (commonly referred to as a "pager" by unhip people and doctors).
Tina Fey Shows Off Her Organizational Skills
In a recent print ad for American Express, Tina Fey was captured in true form with her daughter Alice Zenobia in what I'm assuming is her home office or the world's messiest set design! After spotting this ad on lifehacker, I'm starting to think that Fey may not be as geeky as we thought. With so many post-its, papers and notebooks, one can only assume that she hasn't made the leap into online organizing just yet.
