So I finally decided to jump on the bandwagon and become an iPhone user. I really needed a new phone because my Droid was having what I called "phone seizures". I am not sure if a button was getting stuck or if it was trying to do an update or what. The phone would start cycling through different screens and contacts and would not quit until the battery was removed. Also, on the droid, it wasn't staying charged as long as it used to. The final funny thing that my droid did was when my family was sitting at the dining room table for our Thanksgiving meal and I think it was my Mom or Dad who asked, "Who wants to say grace?" Right on cue I got a text or email and my phone said, "Droid."
As an early Christmas gift this year I got the iPhone 4S. So far , my favorite feature is "Siri" the talking assistant. Just yesterday I told Siri "I love you." and it replied "I hope you don't say that to other phones!" Then I asked her if she would marry me and she said no because she didn't know who I was. Apparently I needed to identify myself in my contact list on my phone. Tonight I asked her if she could change a diaper after one of my Facebook friends said she wished that Siri could. I asked my Siri and her reply was "I don't know what you mean by 'Can you change a diaper for me.' " Just now my friend Jennifer had told her's "You are the wind beneath my wings" and Siri said "I am?" then Jennifer said yes and then Siri said "I thought so!"
Siri is also good with reminding me to do things, which is perfect for me and my short term memory. I can tell her what I need to remember and when she should remind me. Her reminders always arrive on time. She is my equivalent of Jem's Synergy. Synergy was a holographic computer system that created realistic holograms of virtually anything using special star-shaped earrings, Synergy transformed Jerrica into the glamorous pop singer, Jem when she would say, "Showtime Synergy!" Just now I tried "Showtime Siri" and all she told me were movie times for the nearest theaters..
So I guess one day we will be going from this:
