I just ordered an iPhone. I can’t stand any of the phones that I can afford, so I’m picking the one that will let me play Scrabble with my wife. If that sounds like a stupid reason, it is because that is exactly what it is. A very stupid reason to pick one phone over another.
I miss -my- phone (AT&T Tilt aka HTC 8925/Kaiser II.) I didn’t really realize how much until I noticed I was pointing the finger of doom at all the puny options.
And yelling at the screen.
If reality were not an issue, then I think I would go with either the Motorola Droid (which would mean switching carriers) or the HTC Tilt 2 (which is several hundred dollars). Full size slide out keyboards with large beautiful touch screens and highly customizable interiors are like magic to me. Wonderful and mesmerizing.
Truth is, I just need something that will let me text and twitter and maybe keep lists. I won’t actually end up using all the other features. Oh, I’ll play with them. But I won’t make them a useful part of my life.
Did I mention I miss my Tilt? Stupid fragile break-ey screen.
