PS Don't buy an IPhone!

For all of you techno wizards out there, here is an interesting article! I had all but sealed the deal at Christmas time on an IPhone for PDaddy. In asking some last minute questions in an attempt to get our plan finalized, etc., PDaddy caught on to my plan and begged me to wait. He had heard that now "wasn't the time" to buy. So, being the SOOO not-caring-about-techno-gadgets type, I waited. Then this weekend, my cousin told me that she had just bought one, but that she had heard that Palm Pilot was coming out with a competitor phone that would rival the IPhone. Great, I thought, PDaddy will want one. SIGH! So, we looked it up for funnsies to compare and found this article. Nothing really pushes one over the other, well, actually it does. However, the new IPhone software that will available this summer, sounds like it will be over and above what is available now and an upgrade would be quickly inevitable if you bought now. Which means...if you get the Palm Pre, then their upgrade is imminent, I'm sure. The answer? Haha, keep waiting? Not sure! I do know, if nothing else, hold out for the new IPhone...or try the Pre. Or wait for the new Pre. Or the newer than new IPhone that will surely come after that. Pffft. I think the technology is so emerging that it would be beneficial to wait, at this point. PDaddy, for instance, continues to wait. HA! In the meantime, I'm getting an Ipod touch...with no waiting. So there.

I'll say, the Palm Pre is WAY BETTER than the iPhone, but you have to see which service provider is better in your area, Sprint or AT&T??? Also, the plans on Sprint are cheaper than AT&T's. Check these websites for more info, so you can make the best desicion: http://blog.palm.com/ and http://www.engadget.com/hub/palm-pre and http://mypre.com/. But, remember, any phone you get, will always be surpassed by another, either from the competition or the same manufacturer, so, keep up the good spirits and good luck!!!
