ya know i read an interesting report a while ago claiming that iphone users use more of the smartphone features than non iphone smartphone users do. i've got a smartphone, but don't have a data plan (it really isn't completely necessary since its also got wifi in it which provides "decent" coverage), but i know that if i had to pay for the iphone's mandatory data plan i'd be using it constantly. my gut reaction to that report was which way is the causality relationship. are people using the smart features more because they have to pay for them anyway (and would have on another smart phone if they had to pay for the access as a condition of having the phone) ordoes the iphone really make things that much easier that people are encouraged to use them because they're easier to use. or is it a little of both.
a big part of it might be the type of people that buy iphones are more tech savvy to begin with, so they are more likely to use the smartphone features.
maybe. i never really thought much beyond that because i figure that people with blackberries and windows mobile smart phones are in the same tech savvy class as the iphone users.
live for my Q phone. I just upgraded to the yahoo go! 3.0 yesterday. I use it more than my computer at home. I have yelp mobile, myspace mobile - you name it on there. The PP boards, This site etc. oh and the wikipedia mobile ROCKS too.
just remember that being a veteran doesn't qualify you with any special powers or anything that may be construed as Presidential ability. Even if it was the only topic talked about the first 3 days of the RNC. Oh, and that the veteran chose a chic to be his right-hand-man.

I was invited to tag along on a business dinner by 2 geek friends trying to break their product line into the wine industry, and we met with a 3rd woman who does trade shows to strategize their booth for an upcoming event.
I think I have the offical title as creative director for their new company.. ha. apparently I have an eye for expensive table cloths.
Thanks in part to you and the rest of this beautiful bunch. I've had 3 days of progressive improvement now. My body is freaking out because it doesn't remember what it's like to actually feel better than the day before. It's been 6 months in the making.:cool:
I still have minor chest and leg pain but it's nothing compared to the nightmare that was the last 3 weeks.
Started cardio physical therapy once again today. It was a tough workout but felt good to be back at it. My 'old' friends were glad to see me return. I'm like the baby of the bunch. :sheepish:
haha - it wasn't too bad. We went on a motorcycle ride. After the crappy day I had with work, I figured it could only get better if I fell off... (I didn't)
We had a nice time. Interesting seeing him after 6 years of him being across the pond.
Finding out the doctor who told my Aunt that she had lung cancer had was wrong. After 3 weeks of waiting and doing tests they found out it was all scar tissue/emphasema (I know it's spelled wrong sorry). We are so greatful he was wrong but it has been an intensly stressful 3 weeks for everyone involved.
