A Message From Your Friendly iPhoneFebruary 25th, 2009

The newest edition to my technical arsenal is the iPhone. Though it is a long time coming and many say it’s overrated, my suspicions of its usefulness were not disappointed.

The apps give you complete control. And with the Internet wherever you go, you never miss a beat. I’ve been able to find the nearest ihop at 12:30 at night, have their phone number, and call them to find out if they are open 24 hours. Today I was sent a text in Spanish. In 2 minutes, I had a translator app, figured out what the text said, and responded in Spanish. Tell me you can find me something better.

I have only 4 quarrels with it: you can’t run multiple apps at a time, there is no removable memory, you have to own a Mac (or hackintosh) to develop apps for it, and the battery life isn’t great.

Many people have complained about the typing on it. Hands down, the easiest typing ever. If my fat fingers can type on it with no trouble, then it’s not a problem. The autocorrect feature easily fixes any mistakes you may have committed.

There you have it. I’ve made my way into the smartphone world and it rocks. Signing off from my iPhone, goodnight.
