Finally.

Saturday J. got his hot little hands on his very own (working!) iPhone, so now I don’t have to be all hush-hush about how amazing mine is any more.

If you recall, J. waited in line for the phones on the Friday they came out. He got mine without any problems, but had many (many, many) problems with his. He had “bought” a phone, but since they were out of stock he had to wait for it. And even though they were getting more in stock all week, his phone was actually being shipped to him, so the store wouldn’t just give him one of the incoming phones. When his phone finally arrived, it was DOA. The girls and I tried to take it back to the Apple store for him but were only given an appointment for Saturday to bring it back in.

The guys at work were taking bets on whether J. would actually show up on Monday with an iPhone or not. As you can see, they lost. I was the only one who bet that he would indeed have one. (So pay up, boys!)

So on to how much I {heart} this phone.

• The photos above…taken with my iPhone! (Pretty good quality, for a phone, eh?)
• Traffic check, and mapping of an alternate route home from the aquarium the other day…done with my iPhone.
• My ever expanding to-do list, always with me…on the iPhone.
• My iPod that always seems to be dead -now it isn’t needed…I have my iPhone.
• Can’t remember the name of a song?…wait, I have my iPhone. (Wicked cool program, it’ll listen to a bit of the song, figure it out, and bring it up on iTunes, so sweet.)
• Surfing, blog reading, shopping, even writing my blogs…can do it all on the iPhone.
• Check my calendar while dropping off Em’s friend to plan the next date…yep, it is all there, on my iPhone.

We are merely scratching the surface here, my friends. It is really indescribably cool. J. said to me tonight, “How can you deny that it is the coolest device, maybe ever?”

I can’t.
