Well, four months and one controversial price drop later, look what I got:

A big part of my decision to go for the iPhone can be seen in the upper left corner of the image (also my ebay phone had picked up a nasty habit of inexplicably beeping every 9 seconds). No expensive AT&T contract means I can keep my cheap T-Mobile plan and still get in on the iFun.

And after only three days of playing with it, I can definitely say it's better than advertised. This little gadget is pretty awesome.

I also mentioned last June that my AAPL stock might cover the cost if the phone was a hit. If you had bought 8 shares of AAPL the day I posted that, you could have sold it today and netted an iPhone in profits (before taxes). Not too shabby.]]> http://www.bilherron.com/cryforhelp/clippings/2007/tphone/637/feed/ 3 Good to know http://www.bilherron.com/cryforhelp A maddeningly reasonable take on the world Wed, 29 Sep 2010 06:01:00 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.1 A Cry for Help » Tech http://www.bilherron.com/cryforhelp A maddeningly reasonable take on the world Wed, 29 Sep 2010 06:01:00 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.1 tPhone http://www.bilherron.com/cryforhelp/clippings/2007/tphone/637/ http://www.bilherron.com/cryforhelp/clippings/2007/tphone/637/#comments Tue, 23 Oct 2007 03:16:11 +0000 Bil http://www.bilherron.com/cryforhelp/clippings/2007/tphone/637/ JesusPhone iPhone came out in June, I decided it was a little too rich for my blood.
