I have made a command decision:

When it comes out, I’m getting the iPhone. Maybe not immediately – I’d like to read a couple reviews first – but at some point by summer’s end, unless the thing comes off like the Zune or the U-Force, I’m getting one.

I just got the Nokia E62 Smartphone when I signed my very own, just-me-and-no-one-else contract with Cingular, and so far I’m underwhelmed. It’s not that it doesn’t work – there are several features I have yet to figure out – but it’s just kinda…wonky. Sometimes, when someone calls, it will ring with a totally random ringtone. I can’t figure out how the hell to link it to my e-mail client. I still can’t figure out how to hold it to my ear to get the best sound quality. I can’t figure out how to load music on it. Many phones I have had, these features are more or less self-explanatory.

Also, I look at the iPhone online every day. Every. Day. I think Jesus is calling me to get one, and you don’t want to argue with Jesus, now, do you?*

*okay, so, not Jesus so much as my insatiable consumer appetite and my honest-to-God need for a good all-in-one PDA/Phone device.
