My "traditional" flip phone gave up the ghost today.

It would not dial anymore. Just quit.

So I went to AT&T and succumbed to the inevitable.

I got an iPhone.

I have been a long term holdout but I changed over because there is no doubt it is a better phone than alternatives, And the flip is no longer enough to take care of what I would like to do "out there".

I would, for example, like to try texting.

I would like to have the net in one hand.

I like my iPad which I use as an alternative "back yard" computer. I will keep it as a backup but it is too unwieldy for other uses and it doesn't make phone calls.

It is expensive but after the first blush not so much. John already has a tablet phone and so the add-on isn't that steep.

I will have a learning curve. It already feels like I ma holding a brick up to my face. Where do you put your chin? Today I put it on the Stop sign at the bottom. The phone call stopped.
