Why I Came Crawling Back To The iPhone

Posted on Oct 2, 2009 - 7:37 PM Comments (0)

Well that didn't take very long did it? Roughly 10 weeks ago I wrote about why I was switching from my iPhone (which I had used for nearly 2 years) back to a BlackBerry.

Well, the other day I broke down and picked up a brand new iPhone 3Gs. I know, I know. I'm a fan boy I guess.

Truth is I love my Blackberry but I also loved the iPhone. With the new release of the iPhone OS (version 3.1), the addition of MMS support (finally!) from AT&T and all the apps I loved and ...

Wow, I've been missing in action haven't I (at least on this f'n blog.) Sorry about that. I promise to try and write more posts but knowing me I'll get tied up with a ton of other things and put this on the back burner... like I always do.

Anyways, on to the actual article...

A few months ago I finally got frustrated enough with my iPhone that I decided to do something I had been wanting to do for 6 months or so... I switched back to a BlackBerry.

Of course, a few days after ...

Blackberry Pearl

Saturday, I picked up a new Blackberry Pearl which is replacing my old Blackberry 8700g. At first, the smaller phone and especially keyboard was annoying to me. The more I use it, the more I like the interface. Nothing can replace the full keyboard imho, but the rest of the phones navigation is superior. I especially like the roll ball navigation, as opposed to the scroll wheel on the 8700. Again, the biggest adjustment is the keyboard but I am getting the hang of it. The word prediction on this phone is much better than any other device I have ...

T-Mobile + BlackBerry 8700 = MMS Message Issues

"You have been sent a picture message. View your message at http://www.t-mobilepictures.com"

For months I was annoyed with that. The whole point of receiving MMS (picture) messages is to get a quick glance without having to use your desktop! I finally got tired of it and investigated why I was having this trouble. I use the Blackberry 8700g device with T-Mobile cellular service.

Apparently, I am not the only person frustrated with this. A quick check of the forums at Pinstack.com shows many, many people with the same issue. These are the steps I found to ...

iPod in public == $100 fine

I found this via Google News...


"That's because Sen. Carl Kruger (D-Brooklyn) plans to introduce legislation that would ban people from listening to music players or using electronic devices that would hamper their awareness of their surroundings while crossing the street, said Jason Joppel, Kruger's chief of staff. The legislation would also apply to pedestrians using iPods and other MP3 players, BlackBerries, cell phones or other devices."

Now, this can get hairy. I routinely use my iPod and BlackBerry in public, so this can't be good news. Luckily I live in Los Angeles and not New York ...
