I have finally succumbed to the might that is Apple and signed up for an iPhone 3G from Vodafone!
Some of you will be aware that I have deliberated long and hard over the last month or so as to whether I should get a Blackberry or iPhone.
What finally “clinched the deal” as they say, was the following three facts:
- I already have a Blackberry at work;
- the majority were urging me to get the iPhone So there was considerable peer pressure *cough*; and
- why not?! I have always made decisions about new mobile phones based on the £, so this time, I decided to push the boat out, yay me!
So there you have it, a proud new owner of the Apple iPhone. Three cheers: hip hip … oh alright then, it really isn’t that much of a big deal!
What about the peer pressure for Android Phones? Surely JG must have tried to persuade you to buy an Android based phone?
JG never suggested Android to me. Besides, even his wife has an iPhone!
Dafydd,
Android phones are good – but the current hardware that’s in UK sucks for them (they’re nowhere near as powerful as the iPhone 3GS so you really notice the hardware limitation)
This would be enough to put off someone that is easily impressed by “ohh shiny!” such as Rob here
Nexus One on the other hand would be awesome once it’s in UK (with Vodafone first) – higher resolution screen and faster CPU/GPU.
JG: Point taken.
Rob: you should have waited
