iPhone, BlackBerry, Carriers… Oh My! (Part One)
My iPhone hasn’t been working great.
But for the first time ever, I have a phone that seems to have almost-everything that I’d want a phone to have (I don’t have the 3G yet)… but one of the most important functions of the phone is failing—every application crashes (back to a home screen) before fully loading!
Essentially, after a while, I can’t use the phone.
When the phone gets to this fatal-crash-cycle, I reformat… magically, it works fine, yay… for a while. Then it’s back to the crashing. Reformat. Repeat.
Forgetting the crappy-battery-life-issue for a moment, this is just ridiculous! The iPhone… the most technically-advanced, superior phone in the world… and yet, my Sanyo RL-4920 is outperforming it in almost every way.
Will locking-myself-into-ANOTHER-two-year-agreement-and-shelling-out-cash-for-ANOTHER-iPhone (this time, “3G” shiny, magical “3G!”) solve the problem?
More importantly… what if it doesn’t?!
[ To be continued... to talk about my BlackBerry experiences! In the meantime, please drop a comment and let me know what you think... of the subject matter, the style, the layout, the iPhone.
