wow factor

Blame the Better Half, Apple Aus, David Poque and Google.

In a casual manner she says.. "You can buy an iPhone 3GS from Apple.com.au, no strings attached".

I can and after visiting phone dealers on the strip, I can't get one from them without signing my life away.

I recalled this 3GS review by David Pogue...

At this point, the usual 10 rational objections to the iPhone have been whittled down to about three: no physical keyboard, no way to swap the battery yourself and no way to avoid using AT&T as your carrier.

Pogue's remaining objections don't apply as I like the 3G keyboard, battery life has never been a problem and there's no AT&T in Oz.

That leaves the matter of price.

While denying any interest in my 3G, the main squeeze suggests that the bargain price on the holiday house means there's cash in the bottom drawer plus Google sent some timely cash.

Indulge myself or show some restraint?
I'll pick restraint, and soak up more subtle pressure from the cool and curvy instigator, like this one..so what App's are on your 3G?

Update: Subtle pressure is being applied. The cook spent last night agonising over suitable iPhone cases! Seems like the red Sena tickles her fancy.

Update: Breakfast pressure was too much. One iPhone 3GS and one red Sena case are on their way from Apple.au
