Forget the fact that he created TechMeme, you haven’t made it in silicon valley until you’ve been asked to do a gadget recommendation for Business Week. Gabe Rivera says the “De’Longhi Magnifica saves me a lot of time performing an essential function: making delicious coffee.”
Nice picture. 
Incidentally, a new Magnifica model (ESAM3300) is coming out. It’s listed on Amazon, but not yet shipping. If De’Longhi can spare a sample unit for its leading Menlo Park-based evangelist, I’ll be sure to mention my Magnifica whenever I speak to influencers on my white AT&T model 210 telephone.
What’s somewhat ironic is that is a ‘Princess’ style phone he’s holding.
Well Josh, your famous eye for Princess accessories might be failing you this time. The AT&T 210 Trimline Corded Phone is the classic, quintessential “plain white phone”: http://www.amazon.com/210-Trimline-Corded-Phone-White/dp/B000050FZP
While an excellent appliance for the Princess’s efficient and professional servants, I wouldn’t recommend for the Princess herself.
The Magnifica, on the other hand, is fit for Princess, Prince, Queen, and King alike.

i like the slightly deranged look in gabe’s eye in that photo… can’t tell if that was intentional, or perhaps just after he had about 6 cups of espresso.
Those are some shiny white pearls!
Gabe, why you pimpin the Jitterbug phone?
