something good. Phone.
Jun. 9th, 2010 01:04 pmI love my phone.
My phone knows everything. It meeps when I have email to any of my 5 accounts. It drrringgs when I have a text message or IM (which are poorly differentiated, but that's not a huge woe), and it happily uses any of my MP3s to create its own ringtones for phone calls. Setting different ringtones for different contacts was easy. All of this is very easy to set up.
But I love that it works so transparently for email.
I was waiting for my SO to finish with his appointment and read a DW response comment and sent an email and still got the text when he was done so I didn't feel like I had to wait in the hot car or superfluously in the waiting room.
There are some gaps in the apps available, it should not be anywhere nearly so hard to get a timer function. (I want an "alarm in 30 minutes" kind of feature and it's surprisingly difficult to get without paying for it.)
I have a Palm Pre. And I really like it.
