My name is Jenn, and I'm a 27 year old married and babied chick. In addition to a husband, a seven year old daughter, and a five year old autistic son, I also have four cats, three hermit crabs, two frogs, a few fish, and one snorty little Pug. I work from home doing a variety of writing and even some web design. I love blogging, digital photography and web design.
Since my T-Mobile G1‘s phone button decided to sorta-kinda die on me about a month or so back, I have been chomping at the bit to get a new phone. Do you know what a pain it is to not be able to answer phone calls? If I press really hard and angle the pressure a certain way on the button, it’ll work. Others times, nothing. But I wasn’t too keen on spending over $200 for a new Android phone, so I waited until our wireless account would be eligible for an upgrade.
Needless to say, I do have a new phone now. I checked my T-Mobile account yesterday and found that I could get the T-Mobile myTouch 3G for $150, so I listed my G1 on eBay for $150, squealed when I saw that it sold in twelve minutes flat (holy fast buyer! I love you!), then made plans to go out to my local T-Mobile store this morning and snatch up a white MyTouch 3G.
So far I’m loving it. It’s definitely faster and more responsive than the G1. At first I was really missing the physical slide-out keyboard that the G1 has, but the myTouch has a much better on-screen keyboard, and I’m quickly acclimating to it. And since it’s powered by Google’s very own Android, the only things I had to add to the phone were my wallpapers and ringtones. Apps from the Android market were a breeze to download; I was also able to download apps I had purchased for my other Android phone. Since the phone requires that I sign in with my Google account, my contacts, calendar info, emails, etc., were automatically added. Whee!
