A couple of days ago I decided to sell my old 1st generation iPhone. I sold it for $200.00 to some guy from Egypt – apparently they are much more expensive there. I must say, I don’t miss it very much. I thought at first I was going to experience withdraw symptoms, but that was not the case at all. I was using it to replace my work blackberry and was quite happy with the email app, but after re-activating the old blackberry, I actually find it much easier to send and receive email. Let’s face it, typing on the iPhone sucks! The auto correction feature makes it easier if you are using proper English, but if you grew up in the ghetto like I did, you are dead in the water. I also had a 2GB iPod nano that I used to use before the iPhone. It was still almost brand new, so I pulled it out of my back pack and loaded it with some music and podcasts and off I went like any other iTunes commercial shadow would.
After nearly a week I don’t feel the urge to run and get the new iPhone 3GS. I honestly think that life will be ok without the iPhone. I do miss being able to talk on skype using my iphone, and the ability to download podcasts from iTunes without a computer. These features are not that important to me, since I am always carrying my laptop and I have a Sprint aircard, so I can always fire it up if need be.
Will apple come out with another sexy looking iPhone to win me back? Who knows? After all I did buy a Macbook Pro after I said I wouldn’t, but for now my blackberry rules!!!!
is the iPhone 4 sexy enough to bring you back?
