Brandon and Lindsey seem to have some sort of cell-phone-destructive gene, so they have rotated through many phones; sometimes they’ve traded with friends who upgraded their own phones, and for a while Lindsey was without a phone as she saved up money for a new one after her “old” one broke. (“Old” in quotes because it really wasn’t.) Ken has upgraded a couple of times — but has managed not to break any phones. But for the past six years, I have kept my simple little phone — mostly because I just refused to buy a new one until my old one no longer functioned.

But yesterday Ken bought me an early Christmas present: an iPhone!

So it’s out with the old, in with the new!

I wasn’t sure how much I’d like it, but I love it already. I’ve added a few apps, including tweetdeck, iChess, and a wonderful Bible-reading app called YouVersion — which I highly recommend! And what could be cooler than wallpaper background of a giraffe photo I took in Africa? I feel so high tech.

Any other apps I should get?
