The Windleverse

As the title describes I have an iPhone 3G now and in the tradition of getting a new device that can update wordpress, this post is being written on that device.

Many of you may be thinking “Jonathan + iPhone = WTF?” and trust me I’m with you here but let me start from the beginning.

On 2008-04-04 I left Photo & Sound Saving and began a search for a new job. At the time I thought I would be starting a new career at The City Of Bothell but it was not to be. Instead I was beat out by yet another idiot with a degree which is funny considering where I ended up. 2008-06-30 I was hired on at Bellevue Community College as a Network Admin.

So back to the iPhone. AT&T offers state employees a 15% discount on their monthly bills. It’s like w00t where do I sign up. The catch being a have to sign a new two year contract. Thus in renewing my contract I got an iPhone.

Here are the likes and dislikes so far.

Likes:
Capacitive Touchscreen
Makes E-Mail useful and fun again
No more worrying about finding open WiFi for Internet
Interface very fast to navigate

Dislikes:
NO T9 Input Interface!
Lack to copy and paste
Not enough key applications for free in App Store. SSH Client just to name one
Not a true multi-tasking OS.

In reference to sorting through someone’s pictures from their trip to Egypt.

“It’s comforting to know that there are places in the world that I will never wish to visit so that in my new world order there will be places to put people I don’t like.”

I guess this means if you are someone I don’t like get ready for a free one way trip to Egypt. Perhaps a good starting point would be the entire Bush Administration.
