I downloaded the WordPress iPhone app. Decided to create this entry 100% from the iPhone, including an image.
It’s awkward, but I am getting better tapping using the tiny keyboard. I certainly won’t make this a habbit.
The WordPress app is nice, but a mobile device is no substitute for a desktop, proper keyboard and mouse. It is comforting to know that I can blog anytime, anywhere.
It’s more comforting to know, I have the good sense, to know better.
I didn’t stand in line all night for the product launch. I didn’t video and youtube, myself opening the box or activating it. In fact, I’m pretty sure I voted “I have no interest in the iPhone” in Marty’s Seriously, It’s Just A Phone poll. Though, maybe I voted “I don’t have feelings either way“. I can’t remember.
Well, I picked one up the other day. I haven’t put it down.
It really is a cool piece of technology. I just love it. I’ve never had an iPod, only lack luster MP3 players, but the house is full of other people’s iPods and iPod touches. Never really played with them.
My old phone, a Samsung, still works fine, but I knew a while ago that the next phone I wanted I wanted was going to be some kind of smart phone. I use an Palm pilot for Calendar, Scheduling and life management. But, carrying it around, was a bit of a chore. Too often I needed it, and didn’t have it, and had it, without needing it. It was also a pain in the ass to sync with the scheduling software at work.
