I have the best boyfriend in the whole wide world. Really. Possibly the whole wide universe. For Christmas this year Mike got me a brand new iPhone 3GS. I got to get it early (last night) because we figured the store would be a mess the closer we got to Christmas (or in the couple days after). I have had it for less than 24 hours and I honestly do not know how I lived without it. I know that sounds really dramatic, but honestly, there are so many cool things that this phone does that just plain makes life easier!
So far, one of my favorite "aps" is the to do list. I'm attempting to use it as my planner, contacts, to do list, etc. Very hard for me since I really like to write things down, but I like the idea of having it all in one place. I also thing Shazaam is pretty cool - you can hold your phone up to the radio and it will tell you the name of the song playing as well as who sings it. No more trying to guess the name of a song! I haven't had much time to play with most of the aps, but I also found a grocery list that I'm going to try. I can't wait to see what else is out there... there seems to be something for everyone!
Since I'm terribly hard on all things electronic, I asked the guy at the AT&T store which case they recommend. I ended up ordering the OtterBox... he claims that you can drop it, throw it, even get it a little wet and this case will protect it. The case is bulky, but I'd rather have that than destroy my new phone!
I think back to my first cell phone (one of the fabulous Nokias) and the fact that all I did on it was make calls. Now I have a phone that will show me a satellite picture of the top of my house! I'm completely amazed at how much technology has changed!
