Still Not Getting an iPhone

Yeah, today is iPhone day. Well, it started yesterday overseas, but I could go get one right now at my local store if I wanted. But I am still waiting. Here are my current reasons:

  • We’re on Sprint, switching will still be a pain
  • I want a 32GB model
  • I want a SlingPlayer app and there isn’t one yet
  • It just ain’t at the top of the list to spend money on yet

I was going to try to figure out a few more reasons, but those are the main ones. But at the lower price point and higher speed, and with the app store and everything, it is getting harder and harder to resist.

Edit seconds later: Oh yeah, I forgot another reason, I really would prefer to buy one online, have it delivered by mail, and activate it at home, and they have removed that option, which really ticks me off.

    Amy will go ballistic the moment you get one. After all, how is it fair that even though you are the one with the paycheck you should get something she doesn’t? :-) (Gotta love a spoiled teen’s sense of entitlement).

    I, however, like my little Pocket PC just fine. Plus the iPhone screens are all greasy. Even when they’re not, they still LOOK greasy. I dig Apple. Really. I love my laptop. I love my iPod. Neither of them look greasy. Maybe that’s why.

    So, tomorrow?
