About 6 months ago, I had to buy a new phone, so I decided to test out apples new iPhone. I was aware that it did many things that other phones could not. Even though I went into this purchase with the open mind that the iPhone was pretty crazy, I was still blown away. The amount of free and pay for applications that you can get for this phone is amazing. Last week I bought a two dollar application that lets me stream live audio of any police and fire station across the country. I could never imagine as of a couple years ago, this being possible. I catch myself listening in on the LAPD because they seem to have a lot of action all the time. In the past couple times listening, I have listened in on so many crazy murders and hostage situations. It blows my mind that I have the right to do this. I never thought technology would be this advanced. How much farther are we going to be able to go?
The only reason I've held off from getting an iPhone is the fact that it's locked in to AT&T--once Verizon can carry it (way better on the Cape) then I think it's all over. Good to hear that you've been pleased w/ your purchase. I think I could be persuaded to follow...
ReplyDeleteI have yet to roll over and buy one of those. But from what I've heard the iPhones have some ridiculous apps, i.e. "GottaGo", (see link) http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-10013834-1.html
