August 24, 2009 - Why I love My Apple iPhone
I had to wait quite a long time until I was able to get an iPhone.
First I had to wait-out my contract with Verizon. Then I had to wait until Apple refreshed the product line.
Well finally in June my wait was over and I purchased an iPhone 3GS 32GB.
I could gush on and on about how it is the phone of my dreams and don’t get me started on the App. Store, my god. But I won’t.
I want to make one very important point that the iPhone enables me to do that my Palm Trio never was able to do effectively: It gives me back time.
That’s right, my new iPhone gives me time. Or should I say it let’s me manage little snippets of time more effectively, that in the past would just be lost. You know what I mean. Waiting in line at the store; waiting to pick-up you kids at school; waiting in the doctor’s office (like today for example).
In the past I might have something to read during those times (but that felt just like a time filler). No, now I can really do something that is productive, like check my web stats, answer email, check-out a web site or watch/listen to a podcast.
I can’t tell you how satisfying it is to pick-up these little snippets of time and use them productively.
It’s funny, now I actually look forward to waiting in line for something. I think “great I can check my clients web stats. I’ve been meaning to do that.”
