I Have an iPhone
Posted by derekbender | Filed under General
So I finally got an iPhone. I planed to buy one anyway this month but the process was sped up when I inherited an iPhone (1st generation) from a friend after a funny sequence of events. I spent the last couple days really getting into and exploring what it can do, hunting down apps that I wanted, upgrading and all the things people do when they have an iPhone.
What helped my progress was I already had an AT&T service. I swapped the SIM card and hooked it up to iTunes, within an hour (i also did a complete reset) I was up and running. To date I have a few games (Super Monkey Ball is super monkey difficult) and a handful of really helpful apps like Todo, Evernote and Twitterific. Also my email accounts are synced too which is extremely convenient.
To be honest I don’t miss the 3G’s speed (probably since I’ve never had it) but it would be nice to have the GPS. The selling point for me on getting an iPhone would needing to be connected when not on a computer. For now it lets me do that, very easily. And I get to play games, which helps.
