calling all iPhone addicts...

I used to have an iPhone. 
I had three in fact...two of them absolute lemons, hence the need for a third. And one particular application [the spirit level] caused the demise of my favourite Ganesh snow dome. It was so kitsch it was completely awesome. Trust me on that. You can read about that mournful little episode here. It's reasonably amusing, although it wasn't at the time. So I gave my iPhone to the first-born and got a Crack Blackberry instead. It's nice...it's sophisticated...and I lose it in the bottom of my handbag in exactly the same way I used to lose the iPhone...

But I kind of miss it.
So, I was pleased to find these fridge magnets online at Peters of Kensington...13 buckaroonies...and no application download costs.

I might have to get some. Either that or just continue to pretend it's beyond cool to give up an iPhone voluntarily. It's my story bloggy peeps...I'm sticking to it!

  2. I am so uncool when it comes to technology - I actually use my daggy old mobile to make calls!!! Having said that...I wouldn't mind an iphone so I could get the hipster application - how cool are the photos they can take!!???

  3. You're not alone sweet, another friend of mine was ready to throw the iphone in the garbage in no time flat! She went back to an old-school brick and couldn't be happier. I guess it depends on what you want from your phone. But I love those magnets - might have to get the teenagers some for xmas - surely they'd be as good as the real thing?! K xx

  13. Hi Kerry,
    Well, my lifestyle doesn't really warrant an iphone.....mind you, my lifestyle doesn't warrant many things, but I still have them !!!! haha.
    Maybe I should start off with the magnets and work my way up to the real thing !!
    Have a great week, Kerry. XXXX

  14. I can't believe I haven't lost my phone, I would love to replace it, but it won't go away. A bit like Buffy when I think about it.

  17. I had a big crisis a few months ago to either stick with Verizon and get the Droid, or switch to AT&T and get the iphone. In the long run, I ended up sticking with Verizon and getting the Droid. I am happy with my decision, although my sister makes fun of me because she has the iphone and thinks she's soooooo cool! :-)

  18. I adore my iphone though there are definitely things I miss about my blackberry and I think about going back because AT&T drops so many of my calls. Curious to see if you like it as well. Keep us posted...

  19. I still have a lame flip phone! And I get excited every time I think I've lost it because then I'd have an excuse to get the iphone. Which I believe will change my life. How many times have I called my husband or sister or a friend to look up an email or phone number when I'm rushing around town with my stupid flip phone? Thousands of times.

  22. Hi there,
    Would you mind sharing which blog platform you're using? I'm looking to
    start my own blog in the near future but I'm having a tough time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely unique.

    P.S. My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

  23. Woah! I'm really enjoying the template/theme of this site. It's simple, yet effective.
    A lot of times it's very difficult to get that "perfect balance" between superb usability and visual appearance. I must say that you've done
    a fantastic job with this. Also, the blog loads super quick for me on Chrome.
    Superb Blog!
