I love my iPhone. It has really been the best decision I’ve made in a while. I haven’t been able to be at home as often, and thus, felt like I was drifting away from the interwebs. Well no longer.<\/p>\n

\"iPhone\"<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n

With my iPhone, I am able to sync my contacts to my Gmail Contacts, and sync my calendar to Google Calendar over the air. The iPhone doesn’t support this functionality natively unfortunately. I use a service called NuevaSync<\/a> which has been pretty reliable and totally free. When I make an update to a contact on my phone, it’s instantly in my Gmail Contacts both for accessibility and for backup. Same for Google Calendar.<\/p>\n

I use Gmail through the iPhone mail app using IMAP. It works flawlessly, and the email application on the iPhone is so integrated with everything else.<\/p>\n

The Google Reader webapp is very nice is almost like using it from my PC. It’s easier to keep up with 100+ blogs daily.\u00a0 It’s nice because anything I read on it marks read on Google Reader, and with Safari I’m never limited in my browsing experience. I have yet to see a mobile browser as awesome as Safari on the iPhone. I tried a Samsung Instinct once for internet. It was horrible.<\/p>\n

Twitterfon<\/a> for the iPhone is well programmed too and is my preferred way of reading tweets, next to Twitterfox<\/a>. Both are programmed by the same guy, which I just found out recently.<\/p>\n

Text messaging and just the plain ole phone are even better on the iPhone in my opinion. I love the conversation view for texts.<\/p>\n

I also have Remember The Milk<\/a> for my iPhone which helps remember what I need to do. It doesn’t matter if I don’t do it, I still know what I need to do.<\/p>\n

I could go on and on, but I’ll save that for another post. So, have you thought about an iPhone? What do you like or not like about it? (besides cost, and carrier). I’m interested to find out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
