OK, I’ve finally accepted that I’m shallow and a complete sucker for marketing hype. I am getting an iPhone, even though I’m only 6 months into my current contract with Virgin Mobile for a Nokia. I just couldn’t stand it anymore. When Virgin told me the payout figure for the Nokia I took a deep breath. It was shock, but the operator thought it was indecision and knocked off $100. And so, the iPhone arrives on Tuesday.
The thing is, I don’t know if I qualify as a multimedia princess without an iPhone. It’s a bit like when you have a new baby and all the parents in the shopping centres start eyeing off your pram. You can’t work in the multimedia space without some hot gadgets. And the iPhone is one very hot gadget.
I must say the Virgin Mobile deal was very good. Much better than previous plans.
So, what do you think of the iPhone so far? Is it everything you hoped for? Everyone I speak to describes it as a quantum leap in technology. I can’t wait to use it, but admit that I’m a bit nervous too. I’ve vowed to actually read ‘the manual’ with this one.
I’ve never been a manual reader, and have the scars to prove it!
