Gone to the Dark Side

Posted by JoeDaddy | Mojo, Work | Wednesday 24 September 2008 10:06 pm

Well now I have done it…something I said I would never do and have mocked many for it. I have joined the revolution of having an Apple product. An iPhone. After all my hate of Apple and protection of Microsoft SmartPhone devices, I have made the change. Wonder what caused this to happen? Perhaps it was meant to be. The biggest selling point for me was the ability to have direct push info from Exchange, wihtout that it would have not even been an option. Perhaps the latest “I am a PC” ad really made me feel sick and felt it was time. Perhaps I secretively always wanted to use one but was afraid to let go of my Microsoft base.

I do know that in my four hours of constant use of so of the iPhone 3G, I am quite impressed. Has not crashed once and everything is so simple. Requires no thought process at all. A bit too simple, there must be a catch at some point. How can this device do everything? Everything from handle my mail, contacts, calendar to telling me how to get somewhere or what phone number to dial. Or even tells me where I am with the GPS find me.

So good bye to Mr. T-Mobile Dash..who served me well for over two years. And hello Mr. iPhone, who provides great business assets and joy at the same time.

Yes, I have gone to the dark side, but maybe it is much lighter than I ever imagined.

    Nice dude! It’s about time. You may recall my “iWac” sticker and similar anti-Mac paraphernalia… of course now I am a bigtime Mac-head. You’re right, it’s so simple that at first you feel you’re missing something… then you realize, hey, I don’t actually WANT to fiddle with a 1,000 different settings, the way it’s setup “just works”… Enjoy dude! Life really can be about just using technology instead of being a constant servant to its whims and idiosyncrasies.

    Just tell the truth Joey Boy- Every time you’d cruise over to my pad, the first thing you’d say is; “Hey- Let me see that iPhone again!”. How many times..? 20?

    Next for Joe- Dual Boot MacBook Pro!!!!!!!!!
