I disagree with Kottke

Once some­one has an iPhone, it is going to be tough to per­suade them that they also need to spend money on and carry around a ded­i­cated GPS device, point-and-shoot cam­era, or tape recorder unless they have an unusual need.” from here.

I’m not an iPhone user, sim­ply because I can’t afford the monthly charges. How­ever, even if I were, I would not give up my beloved point-and-shoot. I like tak­ing pho­tos, and there just isn’t as much qual­ity or con­trol with any iPhone.

Hav­ing said that, it is amaz­ing all the things that an iPhone can do. It’s the Swiss Army Knife of the late 00’s.

    I like mine and, being in Kenya, am really going to miss the 24/7 con­nec­tiv­ity with it. I’ll be able to use it when Wifi is avail­able and many of the other fea­tures will work.
