my new toy.

I’m not much of a technology girl.
BUT….

I finally saved up enough money to get the iPhone 4S and I’m pretty freaking excited about it.  I think Siri and I are going to become really great friends…especially when she helps my directionally-challenged self not get lost around town :).  I’m also super excited about the video camera.  I previously had the iPhone 3G and it was really ridiculously slow and my map never worked.  Can’t wait to play more with my new toy!
Are you into technology?
Do you like gadgets?
Or…are you just not that into them?

What’s the last new “toy” you purchased for yourself?

  1. I have the same iphone and I am in love with it. It is so much better than the old ipone G3

  2. I had a 3G and that was horrible, the map froze my entire phone and that was a nightmare. The 3GS I have now is pretty good, but the thing with apple is that when they make new stuff they forget about the old and their updates don’t run perfectly with older stuff.

  3. I liked my HTC evo, but I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEE my Iphone4S. Best phone I’ve ever owned hands down.

  4. I’m always a little behind on technology. I do love my netbook right now though!

  5. Jealous! Me and the BF are both getting one in February.

  6. I am SO not techy – at all! I have a Blackberry and i just know I am not ussing it to its fullest potential. Have fun with your new toy!

  7. I like the way the white iPhone looks. I am getting the 4s for Christmas too, and cannot wait!

  8. My husband and I just bought iPhone 4Ses for ourselves. Unfortunately they are on back ordered so we won’t get them for a week or two, but I can’t wait to get it!! I looove me some Apple products! This will be my first smartphone, too. But I have an iPod Touch so it won’t be complete shock. =)

  9. Yay for you! I’m not really techy. I like when other people have the latest and greatest, but it’s just not for me. I’ve actually always hated upgrading my phone because you always have to relearn how to use everything. I like simplicity.

  10. I loveeeeeee my iPhone4! You’re going to become super addicted to it and be taking pictures with it constantly!!

  11. such a fun gift to yourself!! I’m getting one at Christmas & am really excited about it!!

    ps- I’ve got a giveaway going on now & would love for you to stop by 🙂 amyreneonline.com

  12. Ugh I have the 3G too!! The map app is SO frustrating!!.. that stupid little blue dot! lol. I did the IOS5 update a few weeks ago and I find that it’s super slow too ever since! 🙁 Can’t wait until I can get the 4S, although by that time, they’ll probably have an even newer one!

  13. I bought Daniel the 4S for his birthday:-) iPhones are probably going to take over the world, but at least we can take fun pictures and never get lost! xoxo

  14. Yay for new toys! Any favorite apps? I always love finding new ideas.

  15. We ordered a Kindle Fire. It should get here next week. Jeremy is SUPER excited about it.

    I’m trying to explain my needs for a new MacBook Pro to him, but it hasn’t really worked out yet 🙂

  16. Wow I’m impressed you did a post last night after all our activity. Hope your start to the week is great!

    p.s. Thanks again for being my date. It was really fun.

  17. My husband bought me the iPhone 4s for my birthday two weeks ago. I had a blackberry before so the iPhone is a lot of fun! The battery life is a little disappointing though.

  18. I just got the iPhone 4 and I love it! Especially in white! The map and the camera are SOOO much better! And my husband and I are hoping to buy ourselves a nice camera for Christmas this year! :]

  19. I’m going to sound like a huge grouch, but I hate technology! iPhones, Kindles…blech! I just don’t feel like they would enrich my life at all – I like holding actual books in my hands, so I would never use the Kindle, and there’s never been an instance where I’ve wished I had a smartphone, so I feel like it would be an unnecessary item and cost in my life.

  20. I’m not one to be overly thrilled with technology, but I married and tech phone. And now I have an iPhone and a Kindle and well…I’m hooked. I’m afraid I’ve become a gadget girl.

  21. So jealous! I bought the iPhone 4 in July, not wanting to wait for the new iPhone but I really wish I had Siri. Guess I have to wait 18 months for the next big innovation! 🙁

    And I love technology! (I’m a computer major, so I guess I kind of really have to like it lol) I’m really into checking out new apps, so if you have ones you love let me know so I can do a review of them on my blog!

  22. Still kickin’ it over here with my junky prepaid phone. Try not to be jealous of how awesome I am.

    Perhaps someday we’ll spend boatloads on our cell phone bills and get with the times. They do seem like fun little gadgets.

  23. Fun! I bet it’s so nice to have- 3G is ancient now (crazy how fast it changes)
    Enjoy your pretty white phone 🙂 oh and, make the pizza! Just throw on
    Extra bruschetta 🙂 the apples are great and totally not weird tasting!

  24. ahh this is going to be my next toy for sure 🙂 I have the 3G still and oh my gosh it’s slow! Hopefully I can get around to it soon! The improved maps will be amazing!

  25. OMG. “I previously had the iPhone 3G and it was really ridiculously slow and my map never worked.” You took the words right out of my mouth. I hate my phone but haven’t saved enough to make the upgrade. I cannot wait. Congratulations on your new toy.

  26. After being a BlackBerry user for the past 2 and a half years, I finally got myself an iPhone 4S. I LOVE IT. It’s faster, more user-friendly, and prettier. 😉

    But I must admit, Siri & I don’t get along well. She just doesn’t understand me. (Literally haha.) We’re in a fight, but she doesn’t know it yet.

  27. I have an iPhone 3Gs and although I want an 4S, I am going to try and wait it out.

    The latest piece of technology I bought (well, my mom bought it for me) was an e-reader but my hubby recently bought an iPad2. I love it and would want one for myself but that would be ridiculous to have two in the same household.

    Congrats on the new iPhone. It must be such an improved change for you.
