Mommy's first Smartphone
I have finally joined the land of the living and purchased a smartphone to replace the iPod touch/$6 per month flip phone combo I had been using. "Why," you ask?
In part, because I lost my old phone somewhere in the house, and in part because now that Apple has unlocked the iPhones I can now get a $15/month plan as part of my parents' family plan. For that monthly price, it's worth it. I couldn't justify spending $70/month for services I almost never use.
Now hopefully I'll stop losing my phone because it will fit in my beltclip where I've never lost my iPod touch. It will also be much easier to text now that I have somewhat of a keyboard.
Does the iPhone have a swipy mode like the Android devices? The auto correct isn't very good yet.

EDIT TO ADD: It appears that although it says it has one dot worth of signal at the house, it doesn't actually appear to have enough signal to have a phone conversation, and texts may or may not be delivered. :-( So if you want to contact me, your best bet is still to call our home line or send e-mail, as always.
