Well..today is in face July 29- and I think everyone in the world knows what that means.
I’ve been waiting for this for a long time…but, after reading several reviews I’m on the fence. What if the battery gives out? Do I want to shell out a minimum of $60 a month for 450 minutes (+ unlimited data)? Will this keep me from by the sure to be announced new ipod with fancy touch-screen controls?
I can’t stand it…to see everyone with their fancy new phones and I’m using this old clunker of a Nokia (from 2003- don’t even get me started on what happened with my Motorola V610). People are talking about this phone like it’s the second coming. In fact, I am a little sick of hearing about it on the news. I mean- people are dying in Iraq, there’s a presidential campaign ramping up and here we are swirling around a product that’s supposedly going to revolutionize the cell phone industry.
My friends and family know I am a gadget freak..and, they usually (if not always) allow me to give in to my wants. I just wonder if I’m being sucked into the hype, being shallow, or if I truly do need this new phone…
Anyone have any thoughts?
Update: I found this story by the ajc..this little quote below makes me angry and sad.
”That phone is off the chain,” said Lewis, a 45-year-old who lives in Stone Mountain and works at a barber shop on Auburn Avenue in downtown Atlanta. She doesn’t own a computer but considers herself a gadget freak.”
Woman, you can’t activate the damn thing without a computer!? What songs are you going to put on there! What photos! AHHH!!!!
