Verizon iPhone

Back after a long hiatus from blogging. And what an apt story to report on the groundbreaking event of my comeback. The iPhone 4 has been announced on Verizon, finalllyyy.

I am not going to talk about the specs or other technical facts. My interest in this story is rather selfish. Living in Foster City CA, I experience many call drops when I am in my apartment. I can't remember a day when I wasn't faced with the ignominy of an irritating call drop. It is widely reported that it is because AT&T's current infrastructure cannot handle the massive iPhone customer base, therefore the drops. Lets see if there is any improvements on that front.

Samsung Focus has been my preferred device for a long time, only for the irritating upgrade date to be in July of this year. I don't want to fork out 400 bucks for a device which will be available for $50 if I was eligible. Either way, I plan to wait till July 26th, holding my breath, hoping for a better WP7 device or a revolutionary phone to come along in the meantime. All thoughts about upgrading my phone are hereby put to rest. Amen.
