Why I HATE my I-Phone


I HATE my I-Phone. Why? Let me list the reasons! #1. Phone calls are constantly dropped. I'll be in the middle of a phone call with somebody and the damn thing just quits. I'm left dangling or hanging or just wondering "WHAT HAPPENED?" ... sigh... #2 It's BIG and BULKY. Frankly, it's TOO BIG. I have to keep it in my little Nikon camera bag. #3 It's awkward and difficult to answer. When a call comes in, I have to dig through my purse to find the Nikon camera bag (heaven forbid I should just drop it in my purse!), dig it out of the camera bag, and...OF COURSE...I can't just flip the lid to answer it. NOOoooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! I have to take my finger (NOT the fingernail, mind you) and CAREFULLY touch the slide button (and if I don't do it just right, it doesn't work) and answer the call. Half of the time, the person calling has by now given up! Talk about F-R-U-S-T-R-A-T-I-O-N!!!!! #4. Texting. Forget it. Don't even bother! It does have a feature where it TRIES to figure out the word you are typing, but the keyboard is so awkward I'm constantly hitting incorrect letters!!! #5. Have you EVER had a phone that you had to recharge every OTHER DAY? ... sigh... My conclusion? FORGET BUYING AN I-PHONE! When this one dies, I'm getting a different phone.

I have to test every new phone that comes on the market. I can actually feel my blood pressure going up when dealing with a phone that is not intelligently designed or does not respond to my commands. I find touchscreens to be a real pain. Some of them require a real specific type of touch. I'm just too spastic to be that exact. Then once I work with a phone that is simple and easy to figure out, I relax again.
