My two-year contract obligation with Verizon was up and so I had my "New Every Two" incentive where they give you a big discount on a phone to get you to sign up for another two years. We went to the Verizon store on Tuesday night and I walked out with this sweet baby.
AJ got to play with it while I was visiting teaching. The next day, he was showing me some things on it and then he said,
"I hope you realize what you have." Big pause, and then in a slightly anguished voice, "This would change my life!"
Ahh, my dear technie husband whose favorite activity is to read the Best Buy ad and think about the next gadget he wants to buy. He is not getting a new phone because he already has a perfectly usable, paid for by his office, Blackberry. I told him we could share.
I've already tried out the turn by turn navigation system (replaces GPS just like that) and the free Google Sky Map app. Just point the phone at an object in the night sky, and it will show you the star map and identify the constellation. We'll have a lot of fun with this on vacation at the beach next week.

Andy's comment made me laugh. I can totally picture him saying that. Jason asked me the other day if he could get me the new Sprint phone for my birthday. But it would be more for him than me so I'm thinking no.
Electronics are just too fun, aren't they? I love talking "aps". I should be talking "abs" and how to get them back... You've yet to "come clean" on your job!!!! I'm dying to know about it. Hey, I'll be looking long and hard for principal positions next year. I want something over the top progressive! Keep me in mind!!! Hi Becca!!!!!!!!!!!
