Old/New iPhone
Lots of my iPhone-carrying friends are on the fence about upgrading to the new 3G iPhone. I have one of the “old” iPhones and I am planning on getting a new one, but it’s not because mine is lacking in features. The free software upgrade and access to many new applications have made the old models new.
The App Store is a very convenient system for software distribution. Some people might complain that Apple is maintaining too tight a grip on the market, but I don’t mind. It’s nice to feel confident that the apps aren’t corrupted with problems that will damage my device. Apple takes a cut from the profit made on the apps, but it’s amazing how many free ones are available. Most of the apps that I’ve downloaded didn’t cost me a cent.
So why I am I still planning on getting a new iPhone? It’s because I’m going to give my existing one to Lexie.
