RIP SLVR

Mar 17 2008

After almost 2 years of use and abuse, I dropped my SLVR L7 for the last time this weekend. For the past 6 months or so I had been considering a phone that could allow me to check email and other necessities (facebook included) remotely, but had never really had a reason to upgrade.

I got the SLVR before I had an ipod – in the hopes that its 100 song limit would be enough to satisfy my mobile music needs without giving too much support to Apple’s Digital Rights Management plans. I originally installed itunes solely because I got the SLVR, and I vividly remember the nervous feeling I got opening the program for the first time.

Those days seem long gone. The following picture of my old phone was taken with my new iPhone – making me 5th in the office to succumb to its appeal.

  1. I like how you can see your big pink purse in the reflection. And please turn off the clicking sound because it’s driving me nuts as I write this.

  5. The iphone facebook app looks nice – but it dumbs down the site and leaves out a lot of the main functionality I like (notifications, birthday updates, etc.) – so I mostly use the real site on my iphone.

  6. Oddly enough, I do the same exact thing w/ Gmail and a few of the other Google apps.
