huh...
so, we have weekly conference calls.
This week, our rep had a segment on iPhone objections. One of hers was "did you know that the iPhone's battery only lasts 8 hours?"
๐ ๐ ๐ณ ๐คจ ๐ฒ
That came from VZ internal documentation PRIOR to the updates recently. I asked her to clarify what she meant by "8 hours" and she couldn't tell me. her answer was something to the effect of "internal blah blah don't know more blah blah not a good phone, blah blah."
I agree that the iPhone does have flaws. It wasn't made by God (sorry, Apple fans) but it's still a great product, and the if the specs are even partially accurate, that's fantastic.

We still have the Sidekick. The ROKR was their first shot at an iPhone and it shill couldn't beat the Sidekick...

I have 3 phones that I hate and hate people with them:
1. RAZR (pink, specifically)
2. Sidekick
3. Samsung BlackJack (I have to explain this one: AT&T markets this wonderful smartphone as a music/video playing SMS machine. So stupid rich people go out and buy it. (like Sidekick people). I like the device itself. It's a great PDA.
and iPhone soon.

My problem with the iPhone is the same problem I have with any 1st generation data device.
Its going to have some issues for the first six months...software, unforseen physical flaws blah blah blah.
Every data device released in history has had the same problems and this one will too. Then it will normalize and I'm sure it will be a very fun device.
I feel sorry for the cingy reps. I can hear it now: ๐ก
"I PAID 800 BUCKS FOR THIS AND IT ISN'T TYING MY SHOES RIGHT1 GARARAGG" ๐ฟ
But then again after all that clears up its gonna be a great thing to have around. ๐
