I love my iPhone

Oct 17, 2007 12:51

My husband bought me an iPhone for my birthday. I had thought the things were way cool (understatement) and potentially useful, but since owning one I've found my iPhone never leaves my hand. I don't know how I got by without one before. It is especially great for new moms: I rarely have the time or opportunity to get to my computer but I ( Read more... )

Seriously? And it doesn't bother you that it's DRM personified, or anything? Or that you can't change the battery yourself? That it won't work overseas? Or maybe even in Canada, because apparently they use different iPhones?

As the 'Net says, it doesn't bother you that it's "bricked"?

(I'm not trying to be nasty, or even overly-critical, I swear! You're just the first person I've heard give a good report of the iPhone. I'm happy you enjoy your present!)

I wasn't ignoring you... I've had extremely little access to the web the past few weeks ( ... )

Oh, oh no my dear. International phone usage requires the replacement of SIM chips. I guess unless you want to pay the heaviest roaming fees you've ever even thought of. And any phone that's locked into one carrier can't change the chips, so can't take advantage of local countries mobile phone services. Believe me, this is one of my heaviest requirements for a phone!

I have to admit, by the way, that last weekend (or was it the weekend before?) was the first time I had ever actually seen somebody use the GPS/map function on their phone. Ever. I guess to me and my wife, a phone is nothing but a phone, and all that other stuff gets in the way? I can honestly say I have never used a phone for anything other than 1. Calling people, or 2. Texting people (in China, where it's cheaper to text than to call).

Andrea has one of those things. Having a portable Internet is way cool (and very useful), I must admit.

Perhaps I could respectfully suggest a suffix onto your last sentence:

"... or him."

I'm just a gushy, overly romantic fool at heart.

But i kinda like it. :)
