I was thinking of buying an iphone. My old(e) ipod mini just died of critical hard drive failure, and my phone is old(e). I still have a year to go on my Verizon contract, but then I came across this way to get out of your verizon contract if you do it before 3/2/08, so I figured, what the heck, I’ll get an iphone!
But then talking to some people made me think maybe I shouldn’t. And I hate being an early adopter. And I don’t really NEED it, since I’ve got a decent phone, and I’m using my backup 256MB Creative mp3 player (from the days before ipods!!), so you know, I started thinking maybe I shouldn’t…
and then I came across this, and figured, well maybe I’ll just do this instead. This seals the deal.
[flv:/video/iPhonemov.flv 320 240] It comes from this site, willitblend.com, which seems to be another thing that a whole huge part of the internet already knows about but which I never came across. It’s great watching him blend things. I especially enjoyed the glow sticks and Guitar Hero 3.
The iPhone will never let you down. And I would hardly call adopting a product almost nine months after it comes out as being an early adopter.
to me early adopter means less about time and more about buying the first iteration of something — the second is always so much better because they’ve been able to test it with the populace buying the first one.
and I began to worry about the iphone letting me down as soon as I saw how easily it will blend!
