Phones

For the longest time I never got the hype over the iphone. Or even the smartphone. Until a couple months ago....

When I really started playing around. I was HOOKED!! Where did I sign up to get one? Oh my plan upgrade is eligible on December 1st? But that's months away! I want it now! (I had to stop and look in the mirror to make sure I didn't turn into Verucca Salt, rest assured I did not.)

By the time you read this, it may be December 5th, or even January, and yes, I got my phone. Thank you HTC for making the incredible. Which is really incredible. That thing is amazing. I know how funny it seems, but I can check my email at work! I can transfer money out of my savings into checking on my PHONE. (I have a savings account even!) I totally get the whole smartphone thing now. It's one of the bigger phones I've owned size wise, but its the thinnest.

Plus I did always want to update facebook on my phone! And of course the first thing I did was post cat pictures. Before and after pictures of Jack who was in getting a haircut while I was waiting for my phone at the store.

The best thing I learned about shopping for phones, is to shop around before! I was all set to order a droid x on amazon because it was so cheap and not backordered. But a simple check of bestbuy.com, because I had gotten in the habit of looking for no reason, showed that the incredible was part of their Friday promotion, termed by the employees I worked with there as, "Free Phone Fridays." I took myself down there and did a hand held comparison, and found that the droid x was just way too big for my hands. I don't want a two handed phone! So the Incredible it was.

That phone is awesome!
