Yesterday we got the big announcement about the new iPhone 3g which will sell for $199 for the 8G version and $299 for the 16G version (I know all of you waited on pins and needles to watch Steve Jobs’ keynote at WWDC ’08, right? …because Jake did). So with the vote at 2-nill in favor of Jake having an iPhone (thanks to Jennie & Rich for being active participants in our blog), and with the rumored price drop being confirmed… *drumroll* …Jake will be getting an iPhone. Just not until July 11. But I want a new phone, like, yesterday. I hate my phone right now. It drives me crazy. It will not hold a charge; it cuts off in the middle of my conversations; it rings only when it feels like it; and delivers voicemails whenever it decides to get around to it. My relationship with my Razr is way past “on the rocks” and rapidly headed towards “I want to throw you at the wall.” We were going to try to go ahead and establish service with AT&T (we are currently Verizon customers, just recently released from our contract), but the AT&T website is not cooperating. We want to keep our numbers, but it doesn’t want to let us. Isn’t that nice? On top of that, the phone I decided that I wanted is now out of stock on their website. Fortunately, I had already saved a shopping cart with that phone in it, so maybe I can still get it? I’m not holding my breath. I think this is a problem for a real person, not a website, to handle. I’ll keep you posted as the cell phone drama unfolds…
Oh to have such woes! Poor Diana
By the way you can make that 3-nil. I think the iphone is perfect for a tech nerd like Jake. (But hey, I want one too)
you know the vote for jake to become papa jake is still 1-nil so are you considering that yet? feel free to vote on this too.
As a super-delegate my vote trumps everyone else. And I vote NO. Done.
Besides, they already have a surrogate child, Sarah Grace!
4-nil, Jake needs one so he’ll shut-up about it already!:)
You’ll have to do all the iphone stuff at the at&t store. Also if you switch now, when Jake gets his phone, you’ll have to sign up all over again with another 2 year contract. Just a little FYI.
Jake: Are you getting to enjoy any of the soccer this week on TV?
I miss our surrogate child! Thanks for all the vote in favor of an iphone!! Cannot wait til July 11!!
Dave: Lots of soccer has been awesome, the part the whomps… I have not be able to get any homework done! :-) 6 hours of drumm on dvd, NO THANK YOU!!
durn me and hillary loss because of those durn super delegates.
I don’t think I could take 6 hours of Drumm either. Soccer’s a lot easier to look at, especially the games in the rain!!!! :)
I will vote yes for Jake’s iphone just because I would have wanted him to vote yes for my Blackberry (which I realize isn’t quite as awesome as an iphone, but it does everything I want and more, plus it would just be another thing for jake to tell me I don’t even know how to use). But in Diana’s favor, it would have some negatives: the money, the money, jake already has enough time concentrating on things he needs to do when he is at home because of toys he wants to play with, imagine what will happen to his productivity when he can carry his toy with him everywhere he goes, and the money. Nevertheless, I still vote yes.
P.S. I am contemplating politics.
jake don’t need to spend DIANA’S money on a stupid phone he needs to spend it on a hair cut so he can get a real job and buy his brother somthing nice
Lets see…. when was the last time my brother bought me a nice gift? Oh yeah the pictures I got from Texas.
That was an awesome gift Jake. I think Josh spent lots of money on them!!!
