I never thought that i would leave Android and i thought that if i ever did i’d miss it … well i did leave and i don’t miss it!  Ok maybe some things i miss.

Getting my iPhone was a complete fucking farce though.  I bought it on PAYG via Vodafone (BIG mistake) with the intention of putting my contract Sim in it.  I ordered through their website on the 20th October and i didn’t hear a thing from them – 2 weeks of calls, online chats, forums posts, constant lies, mis-information and a tweet or two they eventually say “oh … we lost a load of orders and yours was one of them – would you like to re-order?”.  Hell. No.

So i bought it direct from Apple, communication was great and it arrived when they said it would.  Some advice, don’t deal with Vodafone, their customer service is shocking – just check out the forums.  By the way, i then spent 2 days trying to get Vodafone to transfer my number to a micro sim – again, they were useless.  Couldn’t do it.  So i walked into a shop and they did it in 2 minutes flat.

Anyway, the phone.  WOW!  I can’t get over how heavy and solid it feels – last time i felt like that was my first Blackberry Bold.  The screen is amazing.  Incidentally i was using a Samsung Galaxy S2 (which my hubby now has) and i know that the S2 is considered iPhones biggest Rival … personally, as a device i prefer the iphone even with its smaller screen.
