New Gadget Alert

My wife requested an ipod touch 8GB so that's what I got her for our anniversary. I hooked it up to my itunes account and went through the setup procedures and registration. This process went flawlessly. Well, so far no complaints other than cost 179.99 at Bestbuy. That's after a price drop from 199.99. I still feel that Apple makes some of the worlds best electronics...however their prices and big brother like attitude toward the customer is something that will keep me from buying a lot of their products or services. The only way to get me on the Apple band wagon even a little bit is to release a Verizon-wireless iphone. Because the ipod we have in the house now has shown me what all the hoopla was about. Its a snappy little game player and media player. The best integrated system for buying apps,music and games I've seen so far. I wish that my BlackBerry had this type of apps/music/games service. The wifi range is good. Battery life is average but considering all the ways you can charge this device (car/laptop/wall unit) you shouldn't have too many problems. All in all a very nice experience with ipod touch 8GB version...very nice in deed. I'll keep ya posted.

On my 4th Blackberry Storm now :(

           What can I say other than RIM had better get their collective stuff together! I can't believe that I had to replace yet another handset just over 1 yr into my current contract with Verizon Wireless. This time I was using my phone and all of a sudden the screen went crazy, device reboots, then acts like nothing happened. An hour late does it again and this time the screen stays messed up. So I take the media card out and head out to the local Verizon store.
             They checked it out and promptly replaced the phone at no extra charge to me(two year warranty). Here is where things stand now. The replacement phone reboots when ever it (randomly) feels like it, randomly fails to recognize an installed media card, getting Java error screens or white screen of death. I really wanna like this phone, but 4 phones self destructing in one year, REALLLY?
               I have not had time to get back to Verizon with the latest device failure. I'm really just about worn out with this version of the Storm. I mean isn't this the kind of crap that class action lawsuits brought on by unhappy customers are based on? The most terrible thing is that if the phone is working properly it is awesome,but having to replace the device every 2-4 month is out of bounds. I'm hoping that this time Verizon will let me upgrade early or change to a different device. This has been a roller coaster ride from hell, when I have been fortunate to have the device working properly, I am in awe. Never had a mobile device that has been so capable combined with Verizon's expanded coverage in my state. Now that I have yet again, a crappy, newly replaced Storm, that still does not work. I'm guessing that maybe a different device is in order. Can you say ANDROID?!!!
