Well, maybe without the euphamisms and the ex-boyfriend phone number complications.<br /><br />I don't have Internet because I'm too cheap, but my phone has the capability.

But then again the only things I really needed the phone for were e-mails, phone calls, and text messages. I guess all the other stuff is nice, but it's just extra.Neurotic Workaholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06775298184138766683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2445163857888749606.post-47360482808361154902011-04-26T12:03:51.254-05:002011-04-26T12:03:51.254-05:00I remember getting my iPhone (I got it a couple of...I remember getting my iPhone (I got it a couple of years ago, so I was a little behind the game as well). I literally walked around holding it away from me, because I was afraid of it.<br /><br />Generally I don’t send emails from it unless I’m in transit and it’s really important, and I don’t have my computer on hand.

The Blackberry does let me know every time I get an e-mail, but you can change the notifications so it won't necessarily feel like you have to answer everything right away. <br /> <br />Hi notesfromnadir,<br /> I didn't even know I could read ebooks on my phone!

I refuse to get more fancy than that. My fingers are too fat for touch screens I fear and blackberries make me feel like I am always working (which I am, but I don't want to be accountable for answering emails at 3am). Good luck on figuring out the new phone!Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00961332983813359209noreply@blogger.com
