I eventually got my iPhone after a few shipping problems and have been using it nonstop since. I explored apps and downloaded a few such as Weebly, Facebook, and of course, Angry Birds.
Overall, the phone has made my life easier. I don't have to remember to grab my iPod AND phone when I leave in the morning, I can check my email whenever and wherever, and I found texting to be much easier. Being the Vice President and future President of they Gay-Straight Alliance on campus, I need to be available to contact at most times throughout the day. The smartphone makes it extremely easy. For example, I can easily compose group texts, check Facebook, the GSA email, the GSA Twitter, or the GSA website at anytime of the day.
In the end, I decided the smartphone was not only a good choice for my major, but my life overall.
