I don’t consider myself a technofile by any means, but I do get a crush on a new phone in a hot second. With the explosion of new, smarter, slicker, sexier phones, I’ve been drooling for a while. I previously toted around an older Blackberry Curve. It was a delightful entry into the world where the internet lives in the palm of your hand, and emails and social networks are always available. That mistake will never be made again, I’m certainly not in the Blackberry target demo. Drum roll…
I’m a Google fanboy (although I am a little nervous about the latest net neutrality decisions – remember ‘Do no evil’?), so it was a no-brainer that I would go with an Android device. Plus being a web developer, the browsing experience on the device was critically important. And I’m on Verizon Wireless, so the field narrowed even more. I remember early this year when the Nexus One was released. It was my dream to have that device one day when it came to Verizon. Of course, that never happened. But the HTC Incredible did, and now it’s mine!
I’ve had it for about 3 days now, and I’m very happy with my purchase. Light years ahead of the old Curve. It looks ravishing, and performs very well so far. I need to take more time to learn its intricacies and get comfortable with the best apps for it. And yes, the battery life kinda sucks. I promise not to lust after a new device. For at least… a while?
