After 1 month, 15 days and 12 hours I now have an iPhone again. Thanks to my friend Frank he let me buy his iPhone off of him so he could upgrade to the new model: iPhone 3GS. At first I really wanted this phone but after I got to thinking about it I realized I just really wanted an iPhone again - how did we live without before it was even an invention? The new iPhone is pretty amazing: fast, new gadgets and even video - but I can wait until next year. The think that disappointed me the most about the new iPHone is that there is no new design, it is identical to its predecessor! I also think that there should have been so more upgrades besides just video and voice recognition. Am i being too picky? If you need to know more about the new phone log onto gizmodo.com or macrumors.com.
Enjoy gadget geeks!

MOCK UP
Could this be the new iPhone, it's an amazing mockup if it is.
The iPhone is a great phone and this new design is just what the 'do-it-all' machine needs to catch up to the 21 Century.
Please, please, please Apple go with this design!!!

DECISION 08!!!
I have been slacking so much at blogging for you guys that it took me a trip to Starbucks to complete my task of blogging - happy now?
So ever since I left Vegas I have been on this mission to get the new iPhone 3G, 16gb in White. Currently I have the phone in black and it's an 8gb phone however I have come to realize that 8gb is not enough for me - I'm a size queen! Funny that now I need it, when I initially bought the iPhone I didn't need to memory, now I do!
In order to buy the new iPhone I need to sell my current one for as much money as possible. Last night I posted it as $600 and got one email back from a guy that said he was interested but wondered why so much for the phone. You and I know why, to cover the cost of my new iPhone but I had to make up some lies that it was for the inconvenience of buying a new one and my phone having to be turned off for a week... I don't think he bought it, I haven't heard back from him. If I don't get the new iPhone it's no harm to my social being but I wanted the pretty white iPhone.

SAY HELLO TO MY NEW FRIEND
I usually never go against my word! In the event that I do, silence usually follows up actions because of shame - LOL. My words aren't to be taken so serious, I am referring to the new iPhone and the promise I made to myself over a year ago to never wait inline for a cell phone again!
When the first EVER iPhone came out I did stand in a two hour line to get the new gem!
The iPhone was an incredibly sought after gadget that displayed a lot of firsts for telephones. Touch screen, an elaborate iPod incorporation into the phone... I don't think I have to go into detail, we all know the amazing capabilities of the iPhone. After I waited in that line I told myself I wouldn't need to wait in another line because I had the ULTIMATE phone.
Fast forward 365 days (and some change) and there I am in front of the Pasadena store at 9 a.m. in the morning with Laura! I told Laura I had watched the daily lines for the past two weeks outside the Apple store stretch down the street with desperate gadget nerds waiting to get the new iPhone. I personally didn't think there would be a huge demand - almost everyone with ATT has the freaking phone! What I didn't know was all the people that either wanted to upgrade their old iPhone or wanted to become a member of ATT to be apart of the iPhone revolution!
For weeks I had walked/drove by the lines for the iPhone and I laughed at the fools who stood in line for a phone that has predecessor and doesn't have any huge breakthroughs.
Laura and I braved the line and when it was time to get my new iPhone I had to convince the Apple clerk or "genius" and the ATT operator that I never received a discount on my monthly account. For some reason there was a stipulation for buying the phone in the Apple store that you couldn't currently be receiving any discounts from ATT. I am not sure why but it was something to do with Apple activating the phone in store. When I called the ATT operator she said that it was a government discount because I worked for either the state of California or the Federal Government - and I do neither!
Thankfully I got the operator to take the discount that I was never receiving off (I guess I was receiving the discount before I got the iPhone a year ago but with the original iPhone discounts weren't offered!) and told me to call the following day and have the discount put back on! Yes, for now on I get 15 percent on my bill!!!
All in all the new iPhone is amazing and I sold my old iPhone for $200 on Craigslist! Turns out the original iPhone is in high demand because it's easy to unlock! I posted the iPhone on Craigslist on Tuesday night and have received over 100 messages asking to buy my phone. The Apple Genius says that he received $350 for his 8g iPhone but mine was only 4g and I had a nearby buyer so I decided to go with $200 and get it sold. It sucks cause five days later I am still receiving emails from people begging to buy my phone!!!
