It’s Love: My iPhone 3G
So I did it: I bought an iPhone 3G. I was lucky, actually — I got the very last one that was in stock and only at the third store I tried. And I must admit to loving it almost unconditionally. Sure, it’s not perfect but it’s probably the closest thing to perfect that I have ever owned. I take it everywhere and, to the envy of the rest of the world, I use it almost constantly. I am using it to type up this very post, actually. (I can report that the touch keyboard works very well, by the way.)
While this cannot be a full review, I do have one thing to say: what really sets iPhone apart is all the small details they got right. That the music stops playing when you pull out the earphones; that you can answer a call while listening to music with the touch of a single button; that the screen automatically rotates when you turn your phone; that the keyboard automatically corrects you; and not least the huge hype that Apple has managed to arouse — as that means lots of amazing applications and optimized websites. But more on that later, now it’s back to playing.
