Hello, AT&T? T-Mobile Called. They want me back! - Click!
Four years ago, I made some pretty stupid mistakes. I voted for Bush (something I am not proud of anymore), and I switched from T-Mobile to Cingular, which then became AT&T. At that time, no one would have predicted that a camper who I was supervising would be stung by a bee in the middle of a camp out and thus require the need for a cellular telephone in a place where you normally turn those things off.In this time for change and economic uncertanty, a glimmer of hope emerges. Last year I sought to break free of the bondage that AT&T sold and failed, but this year, despite the fact that their unclear wording looped me into another two year contract that I did not want with a phone that I also didn't want (*cough*Palm Treo*cough*) because the guy at the phone store didn't want to sell me a Blackberry, I've decided to break free from AT&T as soon as I have the proper monitary means to tell them to "piss off!"
The T-Mobile G1 (an HTC phone with Google Android) hits the shelf next month. That's right, iPhone losers. You guys can can use your little "fashion accessory" and stick where the sun don't shine! Android is bringing some serious applications for people who use their phones for serious puposes. An Internet company making an Internet phone powered by a software platform developed by people on the Internet.
My only hope for the G1 is an Secure Shell (SSH) application and a reliable battery. (Protip: Check Ebay for batteries with a longer battery life for your device!)
It's time to get free!
