…his laptop crashed

 August 2007

First off, yes, I’m using an unfamiliar art tool here. Adobe Illustrator. I might like it better if I had a graphics tablet or touch-screen monitor.

Now, the iPhone. Admittedly, it’s an awesome phone, and an even more awesome iPod(albeit with very little space). However, its phone capabilities are lacking in some areas, like an entire lack of voice dialing. You can’t even speed dial someone in less than 3 taps, and you have to look at the screen. The voice dialing, I’m sure they’ll have an update soon enough. Speed dialing, dialing without looking at the screen, I hope somebody comes out with a keypad add-on, because scrolling through your contacts can take some time, and I like buttons I can feel. The shining feature of the phone part, is visual voicemail. I wish my phone had that so I don’t have to listen to all of my voicemails just to hear one important message.

Thankfully, I don’t feel compelled to buy an iPhone. I only buy flip phones. The screen, and most importantly the buttons, are all protected with a flip phone. I’ve been called a few times by butts that sat upon a cell phone button. In fact, one time I called someone, and the person sat just right that they answered the phone without knowing it. I had a good listen-in on what was going on over there.
