TeamCoco -- the website behind Conan O'Brien's late night show -- has posted an article poking fun at the iPhone hysteria by detailing "Everything You Need To Know About The New iPhone 5"
- The new iPhone is 18% thinner and 20% lighter than the 4S, making it the first smartphone with specs one can measure in Triscuits.
- Apes that touch the glowing new mini-monolith are suddenly able to turn basic tools into weapons.
- Siri has been upgraded; the "intelligent personal assistant" will tell you sports scores, and automatically place bets with your bookie.
- Price: $199 for 16GB, $299 for 32GB, $399 for 64GB with two year contract signed in bone marrow.

$117, 445, 324, 221 in cash as of today. :)
Just a tip: When you separate the numbers with a space, it makes them look like separate numbers, separated by a comma. Consider: $117,445,324,221. I had to reread that once.
