iPhone 4

I just received the new iPhone 4.  I know I should be jumping up and down about it, because it’s new, it’s cool and hip, yadayadayada.  The truth is, I’m about as far from a techie as you can get.  But I AM going to go to the Apple store and have a tutorial about the phone so I can intelligently learn at least half the functions this little gem is capable of.  I had my last phone for over 10 years – that gives you an idea of what a dinosaur I am.

When I start thinking about how technology has changed, I go back to memories of my very own first phone, a pink Princess.  I loved it.  I’d spend hours talking to friends – especially during slumber parties.  And then, the Walkman, a portable cassette player came out.  It was the precursor to the I Pod, and had large cassettes you could buy and snap into the body.  I have to say, it did encourage me to walk and run because I loved my Temptations and Moody Blues.  When I grew up, antennaes on TVs and the top of houses were common, and remote controls were non-existent.  And then the computer was introduced,  and changed the way we live our personal and business lives forever.  They say that being techno savvy has always been inversely proportionate to age, and I’m a living breathing example of this!
