Those of you who know me, know I’m not particularly fond of gadgets. (Well, there are exceptions.) Technology irritates me most of the time. I do not like fancy new stuff that is designed to make my life easier, better, faster but only confounds me as it breaks as soon as I become addicted get used to it. However…
This little gadget is awesome. Incredible. Amazing. There are not enough superlatives to describe it. I am an old-fashioned girl. Old school. Just plain old. I stick with the tried-and-true until I am forced to move into the next decade (or century). There have been very few moments in technological advancement that have impressed me enough to say, “I want that now!” I was nervous about switching from a desktop PC to a laptop Mac, but I will never, ever go back to either a desktop or a PC. Likewise, I was skeptical about the practicality of a wireless modem. Why would I need such a thing?
Well, for one… I can blog anywhere. Seriously. It’s incredible. (Did I say that already?) Oh, and I can post grades from anywhere. And answer e-mail from anywhere. And shop online… from anywhere. Heaven, I tell you.
(This blog post brought to you from Starbucks, where I did not have to pay for a T-Mobile connection.)
Thank you, Jay!
