can you hear me now? what about now? so, i ended my probably near decade relationship with t mobile. i was sad, but wanted to move on to bigger and better things...like at&t and the new iphone. (i wouldn't call it bigger and better)i never had problems with t mobile i liked them. they just didn't offer the iphone, which i wanted. it was hard deciding to finally make the switch with phone companies and phones...blackberry vs. iphone. so a week after the iphone came out in the apple store they were launched in the at&t stores..the store opened at 7am. so i decided like a crazy lady that i was gonna go stand in line and try and get one. i got there a little before 8am and there were probably 40 people ahead of me...i didn't really know what to expect, i normally don't do these crazy obsessive things (ok, i do but it's normally an online impulse buy!) not waiting in line for hours for some new phone! by the time i got there they were sold out of the 16g and 32g phones, but they were handing out 'golden tickets' or reservations for phones for the people still in line- they were getting in a shipment later in the afternoon so they would call me when it arrived. i was bummed but was excited that i would be getting a phone that day! sure enough they called around noon and i ran down to the store to pick it up!
well it was quite the adjustment coming from a blackberry..i was ready to have a breakdown and throw the damn thing out the window until i called at&t and had to get help, come to find out it was not set up right.. once they made some adjustments on their end, it stated working just fine....it was hard learning to navigate around the phone and typing on the dang thing is still a challenge..but I'm learning and starting to love my new iphone..ok, I'm lying. I LOVE IT! this thing rarely leaves my hands during the day, the battery is dead every night..this never happened on my blackberry. one feature i haven't used yet is facetime..the video call feature. both people have to have the phone to use the feature, and i don't know anyone who has the phone yet. well, i do but not to the point that I'd want to facetime. (no offense) my mom is getting the phone in February so i guess i will be waiting until then to use that feature. it also takes awesome HD video and amazing photos -from a person obsessed with taking self portraits! :P
standing in line for the phone i could finally see the door!
