It seems like everyone around me is getting iphones. Initially I was skeptical about the device, swearing my undyling love to RIM and my blackberry and nothing could sway me. I was turned off by the unresponsive onscreen keyboard, mainly because I could never seem to type a complete sentence on one without constantly correcting my entries. One year, one hardware change, and several firmware revisions have changed my mind about them entirely (especially since the release of the 3G model). I was actually ready to make the plunge, but AT&T is being a pain about my contract (they offer me a one year contract on my last upgrade, then end up extending my contract for two years, THANKS!). Long story short, I can’t do anything about purchasing an iphone until at least april (unless I want to pay the standard price, or buy on eBay, and I shudder at both of those prospects).
So you must be thinking, “Forge what is the point of this post?!?” Well I’m glad you asked! Since I can’t buy an iphone, I’m gonna try to win one. And you can help!
This is actually a pretty interesting story: a guy named Avon Blake has recently started a blog, and to generate traffic he’s giving away a free iphone. Potential winners need only to link back to his blog. Here are the instructions. Not a bad idea for an aspiring journalism student.
So yeah, click the link and help me (and him) out.
I think I’m gonna end up getting a new ipod nano. For the gym/bike. Somebody buy me one, I’ll trade you some beats!
