(No Ratings Yet)

Yeah, so back in April, Philip briefly visited Denmark from his hiatus in California, and we had him over for a big nice Danish open-sandwich lunch (with beer and Schnaps of the non-peach kind). With him, he brought me an iPhone, that ANYONE who has met me since I got it, know I have. But, but but…

I can haz broke it

Since April I have had a blast. I have done tons of fun things, parties, nights out, dinners and all that, but unfortunately all that also means that the iPhone has been dropped a (double/triple digit) number of times, and consequently this is what doesn’t work anymore

• syncing songs, videos, calender and contacts (and I have only one album by Paolo Nutini on it, which I am not soooo fond of anymore)
• The external speaker (so no ringtones and no hearing music without headphones
• charging except on the iPod HiFi (which means anything over 2 days away from home => loose contact with world because I will be without phone)
• USB connection not possible on any computer
• Self respect (by that’s more mine than the phones)

…and yes, it still cannot send MMS’s, so no need to mention that…

The tragic death of a sales man an iPhone

I am now waiting for the final breakdown of the device. It still sorta works, as long as I have access to my charger (which is the iPod HiFi mentioned above and it weighs in at a comfortable 10kg, which means it isn’t exactly travel material, and therefore I have beginning to send loving eyes towards my old Samsung D600, which I am looking at now. But have I already been corrupted by the awesomeness that is the iPhone (sans the durability), so am I willing to fork over almost 6000 DKK for a new iPhone from Telia in Denmark when my company pays my phone bill and provides phones? I doubt it, but only time will tell as I am easily corrupted on the gadget front as you can read more about here…

Enjoy a good song that is no good for me anymore

Oh and here’s a video you might enjoy. It’s by Paolo Nutini and a song I once loved, but since it’s one of the only songs on my iPhone, I find myself thinking “man, they’re playing this song waaaay to often…”. But here it is for you to enjoy
