My new phone

Filed under: Comm

I kind of got lost for a while in the app store. Lots of fun looking stuff! Great free stuff! Which is very nice, my wallet really likes that! There are also, of course, a lot of apps that require payment but some of them really seem to be worth it. I already picked up a couple, mainly because they were currently like eighty percent off, figured if I was interested in them, now would be the time to get the app instead of waiting until it goes back to full price. I saw a few others that I want, but need to check into before getting as they are a bit more expensive. Ok, going to go try and finish stuff so I can go play just a bit.

WhooYa! Finally, my own iPhone! I waited for what seemed a long time but needed to get a business line, which is different news, and I went ahead and upgraded my phone. The old phone was really at the point of falling apart. I had about three buttons on it that were cracked completely through the button and it was having some issues dealing with some of the stuff I was trying to do. Texting was a serious pain, though I did a lot of it. However, texting on my new iPhone is a really easy. Quick, fast to type and easy to cut, copy and paste if I want. I am really enjoying it so far and I have only had it for like a day. I am very anxious to play with it for a bit but I have a few things I have to get done so playing with it is having to go on hold until I finish those things, afterwards I can play with it some.

More phones.

Filed under: Hmmm

I seem to talk about phones quite a bit and I am going to do it again today. I will talk about the iPhone later, did do the update for my friends phone to the 3.0 OS and they seem to like it so far. Haven’t picked up a new phone yet, and now I have to consider another line for a business phone. I am almost tempted to just get the same thing I currently have, either that or something similar. I certainly don’t plan on picking up a landline, just cause I would need it to be mobile, although thinking about it, it might be easier to just have the land line. That way I could have things forwarded or just have my cell set up so I could call in to check messages when I was out for a bit. I could probably even get something along the lines of a call center thing. I know you can pretty much rent those from different companies.

The regular phone I am still not sure about, but a friend was suggesting I buy BT synergy business phones and I am looking into what they have. However, I haven’t honestly got that far yet. I will have to give it some thought. I know that if I look into land line I am probably going to have to think about different companies too. I have heard of ones like Brite Telecom and ATT, not sure if they are the same type of thing though. Guess I just have more research to do. That’s no surprise as I always have lots of research going on at any one time. Almost too much sometimes, I think I could almost stand in for an encyclopedia. Although my attitude would probably turn users off pretty fast. You want to know what? Look it up! Oh, sorry, forgot that’s what I am for. Then of course I would turn around and start doing other things. See, definitely not something I should be doing.

Phoning again.

Filed under: Hmmm

Those of you who have been around for a bit know that I am looking forward to getting a new phone, and you most likely know that I am really interested in the iPhone. Well, I have good news! Apple is releasing a 3GS on the 19th of this month! It is supposedly a faster phone with more features and it starts at 16GB! I am excited. It even gets better! They dropped the price of their 8GB 3G to $99! There are all sorts of features that will be available soon, plus with the improved speed of the new 3GS I am, as I said, excited about it. You may be asking why I am excited? The timing is good, really good, because I am due for an upgrade on my phone on the 14th. I may just sell my mobile, the current one anyway. On the other hand I may keep it. I have yet to decide I am just happy that the new stuff is coming out now.

I have been looking at a lot of mobile phone reviews from different sites, well the ones that apply to the iPhone anyway. I know there are some up and comers in new phones that are attempting to rival it. They may already do so, but the problem in going with them is the app support. They don’t have the applications that the iPhone does and they don’t have the developers that it does either. I have looked at the style of some of them but to be honest the iPhone style appeals to me more. I have a couple of close friends who have one and I get to play with it occasionally and I have really enjoyed using it. My friend swears by the Google map and the music. They are both looking forward to the 3.0 OS update on the 17th.
