he iPhone is the ultimate gadget
Following up on my last column I `
was really interested (more _ like
salivating) in an iPhone. I, of
course, gave in and bought one, A
lot of people have buyer's
remorse after they buy something
they have high expectations for
and I have . to say I didn't,
because it's a :technologic
marvel.
I have a laptop at home
and I have always gott n a
lot of use out of it. I download
music, watch You'I1ube all the :=time,
check my Facebook, chat on MSN
messenger, but I can do all of these
-things on the !Pone I have hardly
touched my laptop since I bought my
iPhone.
The iPhone is :basically a mini lap-
top that you call carry: around in your
pocket and I haven't : mentioned that
it's aP hone as well!
I might be paying a slightly higher
phone, bill than most cell` hone users,
but when you think of all the things
the phone can do, it's mind boggling.
On a regular cell phone . all it really
does is have the ability to dial and
Sentinel
receive phone calls and text, where an
iPhone has a internet browser,
thousands of applications, the
iTunes store where you can buy
music, videos and even rent the
latestmovie releases.
This might sound like a
review, ` but it's : a product]
that 1 really enjoy and right
now no other phone cando
what the iPhone does, It's
just that. simple.
.:just
I have . contemplated
cancelling my internet at home
because if 1 can get :everythingfrom
the iibione than _why a :. for some-:
thin! I hardlyuse.
�
I'ra : not saying go r out an buy an
iPhone because. it's not ,foreveryone.
I.�sea know `a lot of:people who. u
one for-texting and calling, but if
you'r.e a gadget nerd.�hke��e, it's
the only :phone you should -have.
1:40 know that :1.probably don't:
.
need to know whats going on in my
Facebook, or have the sport "scores at
a moments notice, but in this age of .
instant information , I'm doing as the
Romans do.
