I like to stay occupied and informed, so the iPhone fits the bill for me. It lets me me keep up with news, my email, and my appointments. I listen to my music collection in the car, and use the Shazam app when I hear a song I like and want to know who it is so I can buy it later (I’m a music lover). I’m always taking photos and shooting video of my friends and family, so those features come in handy. I like making my own ringtones and find it easy to do with the iPhone. For me, the iPhone is more like a PDA and “activity center” with a phone attached!

As for problems with the phone, I haven’t had any yet- but who knows? Every phone I’ve owned has had some quirk. I bought a case and clear screen covers for the phone right off the bat, so the antenna problems people have been complaining about aren’t an issue (you don’t need a bumper- anything that prevents your hands from touching the antenna directly will do). We got a “Speck” brand case. It fit better around the phone’s screen protector than the other available case did (those cases fit tightly!)

Anyway, it’s all your decision. I used my iPod every single day for two years and it never got old, never broke, and has been through the ringer, so continuing my familiarity with this technology by getting the iPhone 4 was a no brainer for me. But that doesn’t mean it’ll fulfill your needs better than a Droid or another product. I think you should check out a few phones before you buy. Have fun, and if you can, find someone who owns an iPhone 4 so you can play with it.

1, Its 2 glass panels make it more susceptible to smashing than any other phone on the market.
2, if your lucky you may get one with yellow blobs under the screen.
3, It may catch fire.
4, If you hold it incorrectly you wont get any reception.
5, You cant view flash on it, so no unauthorised games or video.
6, It is horrendously more expensive compared to any other phone on the market.
7, You will have to wait a month to get it once you have ordered it.
8, and last but not least this time next year and you will have to fork out for the iphone5.

Remove the sim tray and submerge the phone in a covered container of rice. Leave it there for a few days. While it’s really doubtful this will work, it’s the only chance you have. If it doesn’t work, you need a new phone.

Good luck to ya
