tick, tick, tick . . .

Was the essence of the commercial I watched last night. iPhone 4 is now available online through the Verizon network today (Verizon is a member of Pirate Perks).  This blog has not explored mobile devices and their impact yet so today we will begin with “phones”!

So have you been wanting to get the I phone 4,  or a smartphone, android or windows, or just be safe with a blackberry? Will it help your productivity or will it be another device to remember to charge? I have had a “smartphone” for almost two years and it has definitely become a “third hand” !  and not just for talking!  I have the phone synced with my Outlook account and since  my brain has been in use for quite a few years having reminders “pop up” has made it indispensable.

Smart phones can be thought of as small handheld computers giving you access to email, the web, cameras, videos, various applications, gps,  music and more!  Check out C-Net for a good list of smartphones and reviews.
