It sure is pretty…

Yes, it is… but let’s see what it can do. Probably about halfway through now, but I was hoping for more macbook and less iphone. We’ll see.

…but, that’s all I’m seeing. It’s pretty. It’s sexy. It would be fun toy to play with but I have a laptop and I have a smartphone (now I really will need to decide between a Droid and google Nexus One) so where does this fit in?

It’s not a phone but it needs a data plan. That means, a second data plan. Not cool at all. I’m not buying e-books for $14.99 when I prefer reading a real book any day. {Side note: Granted, it does make moving more difficult – Dave and I have a huge book collection – but I love browsing through used book stores and smelling and feeling the pages of a book. } I can listen to itunes on my ipod or on my macbook pro. I can watch movies on my laptop and soon on my Wii (so, on TV) with Netflix. Spreadsheets? Who cares. And, I really don’t have time for games nor do I want to pay for them.

So, I’ll stick with my macbook pro that I love. I’ll upgrade it. And, eventually, I’ll switch from my Blackberry to one of the above mentioned phones. Sexy isn’t enough.

Oh, and one last thought. Seriously, ‘iPad’? Were there no women in on those meetings?

Maybe I should turn this into my Friday feature. But for now, it’s Wednesday, and here’s a new font to drool over. This seems like such a perfect, casual, handwriting font.
