Well the iPhone saga continues and today’s episode is all about getting my new iPhone 4! Yippee! I had to take a look back but it’s been about 6 months since I cracked the screen and 3 months since my 3G died and I’ve been using a 1st gen thanks to a great friend who let me borrow his. This new phone feels so bright and shiny and update and new and fast and all kinds of wonderful.
I have to tell a little story about getting it though. First off, we know I’d been holding out for the white but finally had to buckle after they announced it would be too long. Then after I ordered it, it was going to be 3 weeks until it got here. It finally shipped last week….from China. The original order said it’d be here on Friday but I was doing the happy dance when I woke up this morning and found out it was going to be a day early. Mainly because I’d scheduled the day in the office Friday and I wouldn’t be around to get the package.
So all morning I’m anxiously awaiting lunch time when our normal carrier drives by. After lunch and no driver.
Finally, I see one go by but he didn’t stop. I run out to the front yard and wait for him to come back down the street. I expect him to notice me in the yard and stop. Well, no sir, he went right on by without even a glance at us. I run out to the road and wave my hands hoping to stop him thinking, “He has my iPhone from China on that trucckk!!”
After quickly deciding I shouldn’t jump in the car and follow him to his next stop, I take Emma’s suggestion to call them all the while thinking of planning a trip to the distribution center. But alas, all my fears were calmed when the lady said that was the Express truck and the Courier truck that had my phone from China on it would be at my house by 4:30. Whew.
So I did an unboxing video just after it arrived. I had had no shower since we were going to go swimming and no makeup, etc, etc but catch the end of the video, it just showed life around our house so well…
