Review of the Day

Everywhere I go I find myself being asked about my iPhone.  Often I try to hide it from view when I'm using it just to avoid the line of questioning that always follows.  So I decided to write my own review so everyone will know what I think about it.

Yes, I was one of those people who stood in line on launch day to get one.  My reasoning for shelling out the 600 dollars was that I wanted to consolidate my gadgets.  I had this problem years ago when I was carrying my palm pilot, and cell phone.  So when the Palm Treo came out, I decided a phone/palm pilot would free up my pockets.  But that was before the iPod revolution.  So now I found that my pockets full again with my palm treo and iPod.

So the iPhone just made sense.  A phone/PDA/iPod in one.

First off, the iPhone is smaller than my Treo.  It fits nicely in my pocket.  I was a little worried about the screen because it is made of glass.  But over the last month I have discovered that the screen is extremely durable.  I have dropped it twice and the screen has nothing on it.  Its very bright, even outdoors.  And the resolution is the best I've seen on something this small.  The finger gestures for input are very unique and simple.  I found myself playing with it just because its fun.  The only drawbacks are the fingerprints that are left on the screen.  I also have very dry hands.  And sometimes the phone will not respond to my input because of that.  I'm not sure why.  But other than those small defects, I can't complain.  The sound quality of calls is outstanding.  The programs are sleek and cool, and the web browser is so good, no other device can compete with its ability.  It also has a cool factor.  Its such a cool looking device.  Its worth every penny, and recommend it for anyone who has a phone and an ipod.  If you do not own an Ipod, its not worth it.  Thats the review of the day.
