Maybe In The Distant Future, Things Will Change

Aug 23, 2010

One of the problems Robby and I had when it came to the iPhone and AT&T is that iphone insurance was not available through the carrier. I’m sorry but at the time we weren’t willing to commit to spending over $600 on a phone without the possibility of insuring it.

Now sure it is true we had the option to find another means to insure it, but you would think such a high profile item would be something that the carrier would want to insure, which wasn’t the case. However, even despite the insurance, originally that wasn’t the reason we shied away to begin with. After testing it out from, I realized I could not for the life of me stand the keyboard and so I had no interest in the phone at all.

Flash forward to a few years letter when it seems Apple has finally gotten their act together and made a phone that is useable. I tried it, loved it, and sought out my own, but ultimately ended up switching to a MyTouch because of the fact that my version was unlocked and jailbroken and I didn’t like the fact that I couldn’t utilize 3G.

Here’s to hoping that eventually Apple will expand the list of carriers they currently have and maybe, maybe then I’ll consider going back.
