The iPhone has been available to purchase for some time now, but I still find myself debating on whether or not I "need" it. I can’t get it out of my head, it’s just so good looking!
Normally, I get excited about a new product or service, make an impulse purchase, and, like most of us, never end up using it. I tell myself I’ll change and that I won’t keep falling for the latest and greatest. But this is different, just look at it! It’s super-hip, super-savvy and super-geeky all-in-one. My first thought was, "I must have it!" But, I behaved and practiced patience. Then I see the review, the review of reviews, and there it is..HE said it. Walt Mossberg called it beautiful and said it’s a pleasure to use. It may have some flaws, but it still looks good and does very cool things.
I recently turned off the website access feature on my phone, and one of the reasons was because I didn't want to be one of THOSE people. You know, the one that constantly checks email on vacation and drives their significant other bananas. Some people simply switch off and don't check their email or voicemails when they’re not at work. But that's not me, I know myself too well, and that's why I turned my back on the CrackBerry in the first place...
My first Apple purchase (well, it was a gift) was the iMac, then I had to have an iPod (that was a gift as well) and now the iPhone (this can be added to one of your wish lists, said the devil on my right shoulder)...
iYes to the iMac...iYes to the iPod...iNoooo to the iPhone...I'm sticking to my guns, but we'll see how long iLast...
