iPhone

Besides the end-of-year bonus from my work, the tax administration office also decided they owed me some money. So I got myself an iPhone 3G today in Belgium, since they’re simlock free there. I still have a contract that won’t expire untill the summer, and besides, I don’t like to be limited in my choice of provider when buying a phone.

Anyway, I have more or less wanted an iPhone since the 3G was announced, it — the financial support that is — just never came up before. I got the white 16 GB model. It would be ridiculous to go for the 8 GB version, because my iPod touch is filled with almost 7 GiB of music already. As for the color, well, I just think white looks better. Don’t know why.

Speaking of that iPod touch, I haven’t got a clue as to its fate. It seems pretty superfluous now. It’s backside is way too scratched to sell it to anyone. So I think I’ll just keep it around, maybe jailbreak it and turn it into a glorified touch pad for my iMac.

I didn’t bother to post a picture this time. I can’t imagine anyone surfing the web and never having seen a picture of an iPhone before.
