This year for Christmas, I received an Apple I-Phone. I remember when the IPhone hit markets during my senior year of high school. The craze was similar to the introduction of most Apple products: a wave of buyers flock to the Apple store to buy theirs. I've never been a trendsetter, but a few of my friends bought the rather expensive phone, so I had the opportunity to toy with it.
The Big Three of the I-Phone include the internet, cell phone, and I-Pod. It's truly remarkable to think how far technology has advanced when we can possess these three capabilities in the palm of our hand. I think back to days when dial up was prevalent. It took me about 5 minutes to get internet access in my early years of grade school.
Anyway, the apps are what make the I-Phone for me. I've downloaded over 100 apps so far, some of which are free. As you might know, there are many different categories of apps available for download. My personal favorites are the Google, Wikipedia Mobile, AppZilla, and the scanner. If you feel inclined, leave a comment with a few recommendations.
In business school, we are taught the basics of Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Access. The vast majority of the computers on campus are PCs, so I'm getting a healthy dose of Mac OS X and Windows. The amount of time I spend in front of a computer screen has grown astronomically over the years. I'm not sure if this is a good or bad thing yet. I still have strong relationships with my family and friends, but in my free time, I spend my time online instead of reading books, watching television, or playing video games.
Does anyone have any opinions on the I-Phone? Anything you like or dislike? I'd love to hear from you.
