Gadget Goodness

It's a phone. It's a computer. It's a camera. It's...a toy. :) Due to my recent job change I found that I needed a new phone (I had to give mine back to them). For those that aren't aware, I use my phone. A lot. No, even more than you were thinking. I tend to average 6000-7000 minutes per month. That's roughly 4 hours per day, 7 days per week and is by many considered sick and wrong. My wife would be included in that 'many.' So, I had to decide which phone to get. After looking at all of them, I decided that, however much my budget currently demanded it, I could not get the free or cheap phone. I realized that 6 weeks from know when I am (God willing) working, I will need a 'good' phone. Then my gadget loving nature took over and I ended up getting an amazing phone. The good news is that I did bargain enough to get a great deal on it. I impatiently waited for it to arrive and when it did I sat like a kid on Christmas and learned how to use it. I am still in shock that learning how to use my phone properly took over 5 hours. Sheesh! For those techno-geeks out there, it is the HTC Touch Diamond for Sprint. It came out last week (the US model--it had been out overseas for months). It has 256 megs of RAM and runs windows 6.1 and office professional. It has a 3.2 Megapixel camera. It is in many ways similar to the I-Phone. I am pleased. It is a bit of joy in the middle of general murkiness.
