iPhone 3GS
Yesterday I decided to jump on the upgrade train and, well, upgrade my first gen iPhone to the latest iPhone 3GS. Less than 24 hours into the purchase I’m very happy with it. The everyday, usual, application to application use of the phone is so much more responsive and snappy – Everything works as you hope it would. Apps load up about twice as fast as my original, and the 3G internet whoops the EDGE that I was confined to before.
Throw in some cool circa 2004 features (Video Camera, MMS) and it’s finally a phone that isn’t out-done by $30 flip phones in some categories. The video is fantastic quality, 640×480 VGA (Standard Def) and I’m capable of editing right on the phone and then sending it straight to my YouTube channel. The camera is a nice improvement too, with selective auto-focus (just tap the screen where I want it to focus) and a much sharper picture. It’s not quite up to a Point N Shoot level, but it’s still very useable at 3MP.
Enough techno babble. I love the upgrade! The speakers are improved too, so using the speakerphone is a much easier task. Oh, and I got the 32GB version – that’s a lot of space! My entire iTunes is only 12GB, which would leave 20GB for movies and TV shows – easily every season of Lost if I had that (which I will….). Plus full length movies and other shows. Throw in the Apps and well, I might just hold myself up for months and not talk to anyone – I’ve got plenty to keep me occupied!
Well, this should count as a blog post, I’ve been slacking somewhat on that front on here. Everything is going great, I have 2 weddings next week (Friday and Saturday), photography is going pretty good right now. Just hammering through the summer rush of things.
