A friend of mine took a quick look at my infant blog and wanted to know where my iphone rant was. Well this isn’t a rant but here is my story – and I’m sticking to it.
The much awaited and anticipated release of the iphone will find my husband sitting in a line. If you knew him you would know that this is something he simply doesn’t do.
But planning? He could put that on his resume.
He will be armed with sunscreen, a nicotine patch (I pointed out that other people in line might not be happy to be surrounded in smoke), a portable chair which was a random gift I received from a previous web development gig, some reading material and lots of hope. He has been on the forums for weeks. He knows everything there is to know about how to set it up and what it is supposed to do.
He casually ventured, around midafternoon today, that maybe there wouldn’t be a line and maybe he didn’t have to worry.
Ha. He is going to be competing with people whose only experience with camping out has been designed to secure concert tickets.
Concert tickets vs iphone = no contest. He’d better get in line now.
Personally I have a teeny phone that fits in my pocket as phones that you actually use should and a kick-ass video ipod that I love.
But that doesn’t mean that if I got one as a gift I’d turn it down.
