Got an iPhone.
I'm pretty resistant to change for change's sake, and I really just use my phone for a phone, but I have to admit that the damn thing is pretty cool.

My husband wanted Blackberries, and since he was buying, that's what we got...
The iPhone looks so damn cool.

(3,574 posts)The Samsung Intercept on Virgin Mobile"s plan. The good news- I can get nearly unlimited apps and don't have to limit myself. I understand your excitement, it is a heady brew! And pride at having top of the line.
Ps this tiny keyboard sucks!

(3,574 posts)Once you get used to it, in a month or so it will become like an extra hand to you. I love the Intercept. Sure you will love your new phone too! Enjoy!

I turn it on and let somebody in California work on it.

You got any good apps yet?
I've got like 100.
Just got a new one the other day called "Draw Free".
It's loads of fun. I can also watch my house via on-site video cameras connected wirelessly to my iPhone, no matter where I am. Oh, and I can see my stepdaughter's house down in TX, too...2000 miles away. It's awesome. It's called Night Owl.
I love my iPhone
Hope you have as much fun with yours
