Yesterday, after the iPhone 3G announcement, someone at work made a comment, “For $200, there is no reason not to get an iPhone.”
I thought that shows we engineers have a serious lack of imagination.
The reasons I gave at the time to him are no different that this Gizmodo article.
Still shows a serious lack of imagination.
On my way to work, between swigs from my water bottle and wondering why God turned up the brightness and volume on the world today, I decided that the deal-killing feature the iPhone 3G was missing is a free “booty call” feature.
I wish phones came with that.
iPhoneDevCamp
Last night I met Dom of iPhoneDevCamp. He mentioned that a lot of people are registering for iPhoneDevCamp 2 (August 1-3 in San Francisco) and will likely be filled up before the event. So register now.
If you live in LA I think it does get you laid.
HeidiFleiss.com will likely have an app in the Apple App Store solving your problem.
I have to agree with Andrew. My experience is that ladies (and guys =/) really respond to the iPhone. It may be no guarantee, but it can be an ice breaker.
However, at $1-frickin-99, every sleeze ball will have one. So, that affect may wear off. Only the savviest female will realize you have the original iPhone that sold for $599.
BTW, this trick no longer works as you have to activate in-store. The low price is subsidized by the carrier.
@Jim Goldstein: That’d be a great app: “Booty Call” 🙂
Just do what I did, turn to guys. In a city like SF there is always a guy ready to “go.” No need to wine and dine, just go on CraigsList m4m section, post what u want and watch the emails come pouring in.
