snazzykat: Apple Store Trip
I was able to play with an active iPhone tonight at the new Apple Store in Tulsa OK. I was pleased to see that the phones were fully functional and, being a total geek, I called myself. For a moment I considered calling some other people who might appreciate the situation, but I let that pass.
I think there might have been a few issues with the iPhone I was playing with because the unwashed masses had handled it for 12 hours a day since the 29th. It would only stay on the browser for a split second, and iTunes would crash out of the file browser if you tried to flip through the files. I don't think this is common with the iPhone, but honestly I really don't know. Still, it was enough to make me feel that if I ever had an extra $600 lying around, I might put it toward one of them.
I did make a purchase while at the store, a new firewire cable. I needed one anyway, and the price was surprisingly reasonable. I like the size of this store much more than the one in KC. It is a lot bigger. One downside, however, is that it's in the mall so there are a lot more random folks messing around on the machines.
I snapped a shot of myself on an iMac and sent it to myself.
Yes, I know. I am a loser, but I had a good time just the same.
