For any of you that don’t know this is an iPhone – Made by Apple and nobody else :O)

All photos can be viewed larger by clicking on them :O)

Desktop and the reverse side.

I have to say that I have had some gadgets in my life but this is the best of them all! It’s just like having a mac in your pocket. Soooo user friendly and easy to operate.

I will list a few things (with photos) that it does, but it has a lot more on it as you can see from all the application icons. The camera is fantastic!

I’ll start with the obvious – the phone. As you can see from the photo, it has huge numbers (and makes proper tone noises), not that I will need to use them much as I just type in the first letter of the name and the ‘contacts’ list comes up, I just need to touch the phone number in my ‘Contacts’ and it phones automatically. It also does what you would expect and turns off the iPod volume when you answer the phone and then turns it back up when you ring off. You can have two or three people in a joint phone call if you wish. It does a lot more but I haven’t used it and maybe never will, like visual voicemail etc.

The ‘Contacts’ is my complete address book including birthdays, web sites, email addresses, snail mail addresses etc. It also has a photo that is used to show who is mailing, ringing or texting me.

The next is the texting. I always hated that on my mobile phone as I always hit the wrong buttons and the automatic spelling always did strange things. The iPhone handles texting just like MSN (see photos) It also has a lovely keyboard that highlights the letters as you type (for fast typing). If you make a mistake it’s a standard keyboard so you just delete the letter easily.

Email is exactly as on my computer. So is the web browser. It has full browsing to all my favourite sites and searches. I can only use these feature if I am near a Wi-Fi hot spot though (I think) :O)

Web browser and a section zoomed up for reading.

I have a direct link to YouTube for watching videos. It works a bit like iTunes and must be a special ‘Mac’ link to it.

The iPod part is, I expect, like any iPod but as I have never had one I’m only guessing :O) It has all sorts of options and ‘Cover Flow’ for your album search.

‘Cover Flow’ for searching through your albums.

As I said, it has many more features and applications but I haven’t used them yet – except ‘Maps’. I almost ignored this as I thought it would be only for US. How wrong was I? From the world map I managed to pinpoint, and see, our own house, down to the shrubs in the garden :O)

It also has a Calendar programme that keeps all my appointments and reminds me of birthdays etc. A Photo album that I can view slide shows from, The local weather from wherever I am, Calculator, a ‘Notes’ programme and a world clock.

Here is a photo taken on my iPhone, at night with no flash and no adjustments to the photo!
