For Writers: The Mighty iPhone

Well folks–I finally took the plunge! Yesterday I bought an iPhone; and I couldn’t be happier. E-mail at my whim? Yes please. Research on the road. Oh yeah. A GPS at your fingertips? I’ll have some of that.

This phone truly is a dream–especially for writers. I updated my contact list right away, so I have editors phone numbers and e-mail info with me at all times. I browsed all of the fun applications and am deciding on what to get. (There is one particularly cool app that gives you a wider keyboard for composing and responding to e-mails. VERY handy.) I can make conversation with my editor pals in Boston about the weather there–I programmed it into my phone. And now I won’t have to do the math on the time difference between here and Hong Kong for my latest overseas client.

I’d say oh so much more–but I have to get back to my iPhone.

It comes highly recommended.
