Reading back over my previous rant about the Blackberry is now amusing – both of us are now happy iPhone consumers and are deeply meshed into the whole Apple/Mac/IPhone ecosystem.
My personal machine is a three year old MacBook Pro, still working perfectly. The SO is using an airbook and refuses to go anywhere near windows ever again. Our music comes from iTunes (although I do buy from Amazon/kindle – not iBooks).
Having a smartphone makes things like public transport and odd moments waiting around both productive or not – your choice. Read a book? Between Stanza and Kindle software, I have more reading matter than I know what to do with. Podcasts? Lots and varied.
The only thing I can’t quite understand ( for my use case anyway) is an iPad. A lot of people, yes but with ok eyes and a fondness for small fonts, I have no requirement for one yet (perhaps for a long while).
