Ain't technology $grand?

Congrats beagle, love my iPhone. Incidentally, this was posted using my iPhone with voice texting.

I know you will luvre it Reese....
 
I went through I phones even jailbroke one
 
then Andriod phones, even with a custom ROM
 
finally I am on a windows phone (which I never thought I would do) best battery life of them all.. not as many APPS as the other two but its a damn phone/text message  not a pocket computer!!

I went from a Blackberry Pearl to an I-Phone... man, what a difference. Why did I wait so long? I used the BB so long that the trackball surround came loose, I got a replacement and it broke too. I used clear tape across and around the sides to hold the surround for the trackball in place, then used a utility knife to cut around the trackball and trim it in. It worked... but the I-Phone is WAY better. It just works! I play checkers on it most every night, it whipped my arse for a long time now I can beat it on most levels.
My biggest gripe is when someone includes me in a group text message... I mean really...

Careful - for me the iPhone served as a gateway to Apple land. ;)
 
I bought my 3G - which was already becoming obsolete - in 2009. I still use it to play MP3 and take pics, but that's it. When we moved here, I got a little LG phone (mainly so that we'd have some kind of bill here in Vegas and could start building a credit story and all).
 
I hate that piece of junk with all my heart and I do miss my iPhone, but since the only time I use the phone is when my wife calls to tell me she's on her way back from work, there'd be no point in spending more $ on an iPhone.

I used my old BlackBerry Bold until the trackball was gummed up, the screen was caved in and one corner of the keyboard sank every time you pressed a key. It had tape all over the place keeping it together. Oh and by the end the battery only lasted about 4 hours. But I loved that phone. I remember how awesome it was when it was new. Say what you like about BlackBerrys, the keyboards on those things are beautiful. As much as I love my iPhone, I still hate typing on a touchscreen after all these years. I find it horribly frustrating. Autocomplete is always doing dumb things (like changing words I've typed correctly into something else) and I'm frequently hitting the space bar instead of a letter on the bottom row. I could type at breakneck speed on my BlackBerry without making a single mistake. I didn't even need autocomplete. But I guess you can't have the best of both worlds. I tried, with one of those touchscreen BlackBerries that has the pull-out keyboard, but that was a pain in the ass in itself. Oh well, maybe I'll get good at touchscreen typing within the next 10 years or so.

I've used a new blackberry for work.  the keyboard is a great thing compared to the touchscreen keyboard.  but that was the only thing I liked about the blackberry!

I've got some friends with iPhones but, now that they've seen my Galaxy Note 3, they're thinking about switching (and one already has).  

two of my friends got galaxy 3's the same time I got the iphone.  those are nice, but I like the interaction between my iphone, my wife's iphone and my ipad.

*Pfft...*  If I wanted all of my devices to interact, I'd get them a room! 
 
Personally, with large hands and fingers, I love the huge screen and stylus pen.  Sure has made my life a lot easier.
