I Have Sinned,.. Got And Iphone 5

[LittleTooT]

After 13 years of having a cell I finally finished my last contract and turned in my phone 2 weeks ago. And I have never been happier, seriously. My wife has one, when we go away its with us, she knows where I work and has a number. 0 stress now, I should have done it years ago. New trend?

Well done mate!

 

Iphone = Revolution!!! The first iphone was created some 6 years ago I guess. In the meantime all the other big brands just copied it. Nuf said. Apple RULES. We miss you Steve!!!

 

Holy shit are you brainwashed.

 

The term "Smartphone" was coined in 1997 by Ericsson for their model GS 88, and 10 years before the Iphone was introduced.

 

The Simon Personal Communicator came on the market in 1994. In addition to being a phone, it could send and receive faxes and check email with a touch screen.

 

Every product Apple has ever marketed was invented by somebody else.  Jobs was a brilliant at integrating things for existing products, but never actually invented a single thing himself, including the original Macintosh computer that was invented and prototyped by his then partner Steve Wozniak.

Joe, my 10-year old daughter (about 3 months ago) got 3 A's and 3 B's on her quarterly report card.  As a supervisor, I strongly believe in rewarding good performance, and as a father of a son and daughter, I especially believe in rewarding my children for extra chores and good grades.  I gave her $50 (U.S.) as a "bonus."  I told her that I would be happy to double her bonus when she got her next report card (read:  $100 for straight A's).  She said, "Dad, instead of money, can I get an IPhone 5 instead of money?"  I responded, "Geez, you don't ask for much, do you?"  I agreed to the challenge, part of me hoping she wouldn't do it, but part of me hoping she would.  She was pretty chipper 3 months later, when she ran up the stairs yelling, "Dad, I have my report card!!!"  That was on a Friday.  I saw her report card:  not only did she have straight A's, but she had O's for everything:  Effort, Achievement, Attitude, etc.  I was, of course, impressed and happy, but then, after realizing the promise, got quickly sullen.  Lol.  We went shopping for her IPhone 5 the next day.  I was offered an "insurance option," for only $6.50 per month, with the provider.  I asked, "What happens if she loses her phone?"  The response was, "Under the terms of the contract, you'll have to pay $650 (U.S.) for a replacement."  My response was, "We'll take the insurance."  What the heck, you only live once, and our goal (at least my goal) is to give our kids the kind of upbringing that we wish we had.  Heck, I grew up dirt-poor, and put myself through college, ultimately earning my MBA degree.  My wife is a teacher, long-in-the-tooth (JK), so she doesn't do too bad, either.  She had less-than-auspicious beginnings, also, and went to college on scholarships (which is where I met her.  That's a good place to meet your future spouse--in college, or other venues of higher learning.  It means you have goals for higher learning).  How many characters do I get in responding to posts?  I could go on, and on, and on . . .
