Iphone 4 on Verizon on Feb 10th! Pros and Cons you should know.

i know this has nothing to do with surfing but i know how important it is for you groms to have the "cool" phone so here it is.

Apple and Verizon are releasing iPhone4 on Feb. 10th.

BUT before you go crazy and go get one, here are few things i don't like about Verizon iPhone 4.

1, Cases available for At&t iPhone 4 will NOT fit Verizon iPhone 4. They had to move the volume and audio on/off switches a little so make sure you get the right case.

2, you CANNOT use internet while you are on the phone. maybe it's not big deal to some people but i go online while on the phone all the time to search for stuff or check the Map to see where i'm going.

3, Verizon just eliminated their "new phone every 2 years" policy. from what i understand, you won't be getting the huge discount on new iPhone once you are with Verizon.

4, Apple always comes up with new iPhone around July every year. so if you get an iPhone 4, new iPhone 5 (or what ever they are going to call it) is coming out in few months.

Here are some stuff i like.

1, i know Verizon got the most reliable network and from other people's reviews, Verizon iPhone 4 gets way less dropped calls.

2, Verizon will be offering $30 unlimited data for a while. (Just like at&t did in the beginning)

3, Verizon iPhone 4 comes with personal "hot spot" option. (you need to pay extra to use it) you can connect to internet using iPhone 4 on up to 5 devices, like laptops. i've hear at&t is coming up with the same thing on their next OS version.

4, it's an iPhone 4! You Verizon people can finally use iPhone 4! I'm sure people will be jailbreaking them to use on Sprint too.

so i guess think hard before you jump on it cuz it's not cheap... not only the phone itself but the monthly fees are high too.

if you are getting one, i heard Best Buy will be selling them on the 10th along with Apple stores and Verizon stores.

Expired safety check - Kaito, you are busted!

i noticed my safety check was expired on my van today. it expired 2 days ago so i guess not too bad. quick stop at my friend's shop to take care of it. Jun's super cool honest guy. he'll tell you exactly what you need and won't sell you anything you don't need.

BUT make sure you call the shop first before you go cuz he's a surfer and you know how it is... if surf's good or he's stressed and need a break before he kills anyone, he's out surfing. ha ha.

i got groms in my van all the time and the last thing i want is them laughing at me and filming me while an officer's writing me a ticket. ha ha.

This one goes out to Mr. Kaito Kino!! You left this in my van Sunday when we went to Haleiwa.

You all know the rule. leave trash in my van, you get to eat what you left in the van OR do a 30 minutes beach cleanup!

it started to stink really bad so i had to throw it away... SO Kaito, you owe me a 30 minutes beach cleanup next time i see you!
