Apple iPhone 4

So looks like we can confirm that the Gizmodo exclusive prototype iPhone that was lost in a bar in California is indeed the next model iPhone to sweep the world.

Goodbye iPod Touch, Hello iPhone 3GS

Today marks an important day. I’m finally getting an iPhone

Just over 4 hours ago I sold my 32GB 1st Gen iPod Touch.
When it was purchased on March 14, 2008, I paid $759.
492 days later I sold it for $431 on TradeMe
The difference for the 492 days use? Only $328.
That’s only $0.67 per day.

Less the cost of selling my Motorola V360V mobile phone for $110.
So that’s $531 to go towards the $899 purchase price of the iPhone 3GS on a $40 per month contract with Vodafone.
So the iPhone 3GS itself is only costing me $368.

I’m expecting delivery of my brand new iPhone 3GS tomorrow from Vodafone NZ
They oversold their second batch hence why I’ve had to wait nearly a week to receive my order.

So you can expect more videos, photos, mobile uploads, emails, Skype chats, Facebook updates and tweets from me now that I’ll have 24/7 access to the internet.
I’ll also be able to post random stuff on this blog from anywhere, so lookout world.

$1,300 dollar reason to be on Twitter

If there was any time to embrace technology and social networking, now is that time.

I logged into Twitter at work today at the start of my lunch break (of course), and checked my saved search for Rotorua. I quickly discovered some new promotion Vodafone was doing around the country, Find the 3G guy and win a Nokia N85.
