I feel as if I’ve waited a lifetime. Perhaps it has been. I was not an early adopter of the first iPhone (now almost a year ago) and it was hard. I watched countless tech heads post pictures of themselves opening their iPhone boxes on Facebook, listened to half a dozen clients and coworkers rave about how much they loved it, and then got a long lecture at Christmas from a friend of hubby’s about how if I was going to buy one, I should just wait for 3G.
Good thing the 3G network will run faster (close to WiFi speed–woohoo!!) than it will take to be delivered to us on an iPhone. After refreshing the MacWorld WWDC 2008 live coverage screen this morning about a million times, after one hour and fifty-two minutes of waiting, they announce the 3G iPhone and that I could buy it . . .
on July 11.
Okay, I understand Apple that you might not be completely ready for all this, but can’t you get the 3G iPhone ready for sale sooner?
Where are your priorities?
For those of us waiting . . . and waiting . . . and waiting to upgrade, having to wait another month and two days is harsh.
I called my local AT&T store anyway. They told me June 20. The online Apple Store has no iPhones, and tomorrow when I’m at Bellevue Square, I bet you they won’t have any iPhones either.
I’m in no-man’s land. Or no-iPhone’s land.
And my Blackberry is toast. Seriously, I should have upgraded months ago. I need to upgrade now.
Patience has ceased to be a virtue. Sell me an iPhone, Apple!
