Say Hello...at 6PM tonight

Friday, June 29



I am going to wait, however painful this is, until the iPhone V2 comes around. I just learned though, that AT&T has exclusivity for the first 5 Years. So if you were waiting to buy the greatest and latest technology breakthrough since the first Macintosh, to use on your Sprint or TMobile service, well, hell, just got out and git yurs today. I WOULD!

ATT announces iPhone plans

Tuesday, June 26

Obviously, the much-anticipated iPhone will have nominal plans attached to it.
You didn't think, like I did -because I read somewhere on the INTERnet - that included in the $499 or $599 price of the iPhone that you would get the phone's plans for free, did you?

Announced today:

The iPhone is slated to go on sale at 6 p.m. local time Friday at Apple and AT&T retail stores as well as Apple's Web site.

THREE PLANS

$59.99 monthly plan includes 450 minutes of voice time
$79.99 plan includes 900 minutes
$99.99 plan includes 1,350 minutes.


All three offer 200 text messages, unlimited data services, minutes that roll over month-to-month and mobile-to-mobile calls. There also is a $36 activation fee.

I did read in a news report though, seriously, that there was initial talk of including the two-year agreement with the cost of the phone. I guess they quickly scrapped this.

Another one bites the dust: Switching to Mac.

Monday, January 15

This weekend, Apple gained a convert, and the PC world lost another home user. Meet Marcus.



I epitomize the PC guy in the MAC commercials. Work in finance. Live in Excel. Balding and not very hip. Having been frustrated with my Dell after it seems to have picked up a permanent virus that slowed it to a halt, we bought an iMac on the recommendation of Dave. I do rely on Powerpoint to build presentations, which despite years of use continues to astound me at how difficult it can be to use and create graphics. The iMac is very easy to use and includes programs that are simply superior, such as Keynote - the MAC version of Powerpoint. Powerpoint, however, has been very good at building presentations that only include bullet points, helping cure insomnia among those sitting through a presentation.

While there is a learning curve changing to a Mac, already I notice why it's so attractive to users. Also, there have been some nice surprises, such as the built-in iSight camera that I used for video chats with my family in KY. (Thanks for the free lesson, Dave!) PC users probably have similar programs, yet really the ease of use, getting it up and running and then being able to explain to my parents (a true miracle) how to get their new Mac set up to video conference made it all worth while. We are looking forward to discovering more great uses such as editing video, photos, etc.


Obviously, Marcus found the fun Mac program Photobooth.
