Swayed by pressure of millions of peers




On the way home

Originally uploaded by notratched

I can’t believe it (no one else has trouble believing it), but I crossed the chasm to iPhoneland. I am still partial to BlackBerries, but there is no denying that iPhones are kewl. I was swayed because (a) the firmware upgrade just came out that caused people to be happy with their new phones, (b) Mobile Me started working right, and (c) I reached a critical level of frustration with Sprint’s crappy reception and call quality. I had to move a conversation to four rooms because my dad was saying, “What? What? Why are you breaking up so bad?” I have put up with this for years because the service is cheap, but I suppose you get what you pay for. Anyway, I figured AT&T couldn’t be any worse and might be better. I’ll probably blog a ton about the iPhone, but for now suffice it to say that I’m duly impressed. I took pictures to commemorate my trip to the Apple store, and I think it’s very interesting that none of the employees found it odd that someone would take pictures of a store! I guess people do that a lot. The Cult of Mac, indeed. More later.
