I am THIS close to buying a brand new, unlocked, white iphone 3GS from @thinkthought. Why 3GS instead of 4? Because the waiting game for the iphone4 is annoying more than anything else and my patience is running dry because I don&#8217;t have much of it to begin with. Screw Apple&#8217;s clever little marketing tactics. Only works on the patient ones. If people are still waiting for the black, I&#8217;ll be 65 years old by the time I get a hold of the white.

Screw Apple&#8217;s clever little marketing tactics. Only works on the patient ones. If people are still waiting for the black, I&#8217;ll be 65 years old by the time I get a hold of the white. I wish I didn&#8217;t want white, but it&#8217;s white or nothing.<\/p>\n<p>Because I touched and felt the actual iphone4 for the first time yesterday and I didn&#8217;t love it enough and I don&#8217;t want it badly enough. I&#8217;m just not gaga about it. I am fonder of the curvy hardware on the 3GS. I&#8217;m 100% aesthetics. I don&#8217;t care about all the technology you&#8217;ve spruced up. If the hardware is uglier, then it&#8217;s no dice. And I will boldly say that the hardware on the iphone4 is boxy ugly.<\/p>\n<p>Because I&#8217;m not phone-techy enough to comprehend and appreciate the full effect of all the bells and whistles on ANY phone. I&#8217;m just an Apple girl finding my way back home to an iphone, where I belong. It&#8217;s a mystery how I ever got into Blackberrys.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Cameras on the other hand, is where every bell and every whistle would count for me. I&#8217;m going to retire the old Rebel and upgrade to a better body in the next few months. Perhaps Christmas time.

Every time I browse through my eurotrip photos, my heart fast forwards to the summer of 2011. I still haven&#8217;t gone through my eurotrip photos once from start to finish, since I got back in July. And the photos are still in memory cards. I&#8217;m too uncomfortable to move them anywhere for fear that something happens and I lose them. If I ever lose ANY of my photos &#8211; wow. Just wow.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/charleneprecious.com\/blog\/im-just-an-apple-girl-lost-in-a-blackberry-world\/09-24-10\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2640\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/64.91.231.52\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/09.24.10.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"09.24.10\" width=\"540\" height=\"798\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2640\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.charleneprecious.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/09.24.10.jpg 540w, http:\/\/www.charleneprecious.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/09.24.10-203x300.jpg 203w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":null,"protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[2],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.2.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>I&#039;m just an Apple girl lost in a Blackberry world. - Charlene Precious Co.<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.charleneprecious.com\/blog\/im-just-an-apple-girl-lost-in-a-blackberry-world\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"I&#039;m just an Apple girl lost in a Blackberry world. - Charlene Precious Co.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"I am THIS close to buying a brand new, unlocked, white iphone 3GS from @thinkthought.
