Use ONLY the iPhone for a week?
Jul 22, 2008 Technology, me
For the last week and a half or so, I have been the proud owner of an iPhone. So far it has blown me away in all that it can do, and it got me to thinking… Could I go a week without using my personal laptop at home and just use my iPhone instead? I have internet, the ability to post here, and email. Sure, I can’t edit video, but for casual use, I bet I could get away with it.
I’m toying with the idea for now, but who knows…

I’ve gone on several short out of town trips only using my iPhone. It kind of sucked when it only had EDGE, but now that it has 3G I’m sure it will work GREAT!

Ever since having mine I rarely use my laptop at home anymore.

@Martin - yeah, at work I get a 3G signal, and it works great as a computer to do stuff online (since they block most stuff at work)
@PatrickWitherow - I’m using my laptop at home right now ONLY because I can type faster on it

Don’t burn yourself out.

yeah, that would be the only reason for not doing it. I don’t want to get sick of it!

I think a good experiment would be to use only your iPhone for a week, and then NOT use your iPhone AT ALL for a week. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen that reality show Technology Jones where they limit your technology to that of a certain year in the past, but that would be pretty interesting for you to try.

You can even order food with your phone - at least from Papa John’s that is - thanks to their txt ordering feature.

Adam, I’m trying to create an image link to your site so others can enjoy as much as I do. I would like to use your header or something else with your permission. If that is cool with you, send me what you want me to use and I will do it.
Thanks

@Marcelo - I will most definitely keep you updated if I decide to do it!
@Mackie - the only problem with that is that it is my only phone. Maybe I could limit its use to ONLY phone calls, none of the other awesomeness it brings.
@partickwitherow - I would love to try that, but it might not be good for the ol’ RagamuffinTop Challenge! What the heck, party now, run tomorrow!
@BigPhilNaglee - That would be great! I’ll send you something. Thanks man!

That would certainly be an interesting experiment! I couldn’t do it though. I like my laptop too much!

yeah, that’s the feeling I’m getting.
