As of 6 this morning, my iPhone 4S is out to be delivered to me!! I ordered the two black 16GB and 64GB iPhone 4S on Saturday and when my mom got the email, it said, 'shipping next day'. We thought there was no mail OR packages delivered on President's Day, so, me being the tech-o savvy girl I am, I did a search.
Come to find out that we can get packages, USPS, UPS, and FedEx do know its a federal holiday but don't have to follow the rules. So I'm expecting my phone sometimes from now until 3PM.
Now, I did a second search to see if we had to sign for it because these phones are coming from the Sprint Store, not the Apple Store. I couldn't figure that out, I could only figure out that FedEx required a signature. I know there's a limit on money before you have to sign for something. I had this whole big issue with my first touch screen iPod, we didn't know. My Mom and Dad were at work, I was at school. They "said" they left two little sticky notes when they only left ONE and were going to ship it back to sender, so we raced over to UPS in the county above us, just in time too. The truck was going to leave in 10 minutes.
I know my first laptop we had to sign for, not so much my MacBook, my BluRay player, or my TV now that I think about it. Who knows? We haven't gotten new phones since my junior year (almost 4 years ago). Okay, do you want to know how scary creepy this is? This will the third phone my Mom and I've shared (like the identical phone). The first one was a silver shitty flip phone (I thought I was so cool). Then I lost that one, got a blue flip phone. Then my mom wanted to change plans so, we both got these blue and black flip keyboard phones (And, I thought I was so cool for having that phone with a keyboard before anyone else). Then I think mine was dying so I went with my Optimus S touch screen phone and my Mom went with the 2nd gen of the keyboard phone. Now, we both have iPhones... *shutters*
The only thing I'm NOT looking forward to is teaching my Mom how to use the iPhone. *face palms*
We did have a few issues that were sorted out by Sprint Tech, Samantha and myself. My Mom is having more issues than I am - mainly because I know what I'm doing and my Mom doesn't.
Just finished adding all my songs, apps, and videos onto it and I'm beyond happy with it. I also went out today, and experimented with it. Sends texts easily, even with photos.
The only thing that pisses me off is that I'm use to a return key on the iPod after you type in your word password, which I have. Now its an emergency keypad. Nothing wrong with that, I'm just so use to doing it that way, it will take me awhile to get use to it. Now the other thing I need to get use to is that the headphone jack is on TOP, not BOTTOM. So far I haven't turned it up-side-down but let's give me until later on tonight to see.
Until tomorrow,

iPhone 4S
Hello, I thought I'd talking about my new phone and the reason I hated the iPhone for the longest time until now.
You see, when the iPhone originally came out, I wanted it but of course, Sprint didn't offer the iPhone. So I went with a different touch screen phone until we either changed providers or the iPhone became available to Sprint.
There's nothing wrong with my phone, I have the Samsung Optimus S and it's a great phone. Did everything I wanted - I could text like a normal touch screen phone, could play apps, could do pretty much everything an iPhone had. Then Sprint offered the iPhone about 5 months after I got my new phone in January of Junior year of high school. I was pretty pissed at Sprint, I would have waited it out if I knew then.
Anyway, I saw so many people in my high school having iPhones, and of course, my logic thinking was, I don't need to follow in their footsteps. My Optimus S is perfect and I'll have it for a long time (granted that was Junior year and I'm almost 2 years out of high school) while everyone else is upgrading to the next iPhone.
So enough as high school ended, I didn't use my S anymore. It doesn't get enough love as it is with my iPod Touch 4th generation. The only person I text anymore is Bekah and that's through iMessage because its free from any iPhone, iPod, and iPad. So we would just text through Messages that was until she got an iPhone.
Her plan was open in high school and she was still in the dark-ages, if you know what I mean. She had a phone like my Mom, a classic flip keyboard one. The one she had through out high school. It finally bit the dust a couple of weeks before she got the phone with the money her grandfather gave her. So, she joined the iPhone 'club' me and friends would always joke about.
Now, my plan was up about a year ago and I didn't know about you see. I personally didn't care about what phone I got when I found out, not like I was able to get one anyway. It was right around Christmas I found out so, that was a no-go in my Mom's book. Besides, we were thinking about switching to a different cell provider. We were thinking about switching over to Verizon since we already have our Verizon email and she pays for something through Verizon. When I looked on the Verizon site, I either wanted a Droid or iPhone - more a Droid than anything. I really like those Droid ads!
But, we're sticking with Sprint because my mom's co-workers who have Verizon and AT&T say, not go to them. Its more money than on Sprint. We're only paying about $180 for three phones with two being unlimited everything! Mine is unlimited the moment I entered 8th grade, I may or may not have gone over my texting limit in 7th grade when I first got the phone. Who doesn't do that anyway when they first get a phone? Besides I had a lot of friends who had phones, new phones for a new year. :)
Now that we're sticking with Sprint, my Mom just said, "Get the iPhone, you know you want it." And, she was right. So I'm going into the iPhone club... not that I'm not excited to get a new phone, I totally am! It's just...I really wanted this case that someone on a TV show has....
*cough, bought* Shawn Spencer *cough, cough* on Psych *cough, cough*
Yeah, so I'm getting the green Psych case!! Two of my favorite things - Psych (which comes back in 17 days, but who's counting...) and the color green. The green is only because I'm in Slytherin on Pottermore and their colors are green and silver.
That's coming in the mail sometime this week or next from the NBC store. My mom is getting an iPhone too, just an FYI. So, she's getting this Grimm case that is on backorder... yeah, backorder. Hopefully by the time our phones come (we haven't ordered them yet), her case will arrive.
Oh, I'm planning on getting the iPhone 64 GB! I haven't had a 64GB apple product before, I really wanted a 32GB but they don't have it in brand new, only in used. Yeah, I don't want a used phone. My mom is getting the 16GB when she only needs an 8GB. She was originally going to get the iPhone 4 through Sprint but it's only for new line.
Of course, I'm getting the black iPhone. I don't like the white one, even though I've had my white iPod for a year and its not bad - I just don't like the color against the case. I think my mom is going to get the black one too. God, how are we going to tell them apart now?
So, until tomorrow,
