http://www.blogher.com/new-iphone Comments for "The new iPhone" en http://www.blogher.com/new-iphone <p>I'm about as excited about a new technology as I have been in a while. The new iPhone, to be released this coming Friday, 7/11 has bitten me. it helps that my own 20th c. cell phone has lost its LED readability, and I'm about up to my neck in frustration with it (who knew that i'd be so dependent on the visual capabilities of my cell phone--I'm really amazing myself how addicted I've become). Now, I'm not going to wait in any ridiculous lines just to be a first owner of one of these 3G puppies; I just want a phone that works properly first and foremost, and secondly, since the iPhone is coming out, why not that? I have been a devoted Mac person since the 80's, which I now boast about. The price reduction on the iphones helps too. 200. &amp; a plan that's really comparable to my own current cell plan with Verizon and I have no data access at all. In preparing for our upcoming move and comparing tech. &quot;utility&quot; service prices, it really seems to me that prices are lower now than in year's past. Don't know if I understand completely, but it certainly works in terms of drawing us suckers in to the newest gadget. But my, my I feel blasphemous calling a Mac product a mere &quot;gadget&quot; (do they have my &quot;number&quot; or what?).</p> http://www.blogher.com/new-iphone#comments Technology &amp; Web Mon, 07 Jul 2008 22:24:56 -0500 Flokoulnater 46079 at http://www.blogher.com
