The End of an Era

Breakups are never easy.

You were my first smartphone and forever changed the way I look at mobiles but today, I must retire you for what hopefully will be the last time.

We met back in 2012 and although I left you for your much better and newer family member 2 years later, you came back to me in 2015 when the new version was imprisoned by the evil AT&T.  

You're painstakingly slow and because of your age can only run about 2 apps but you did what you could. You're also a little too stuck in the past with your 3G hipster ways and I'm ready to move on.

You accompanied me to Ireland and although I only used you for internet, you always managed to help me find my way when I was lost.  One night in Prague you were taken from me but I chased your kidnapper down and got you back.  

Goodbye, my ever faithful iPhone 3.

If none of that made sense, I no longer have to use my ancient iPhone.  My usual phone was locked to a US network until the 2 year contract expired which it did today.  That means I can now use it as my Australian phone.  Hooray!  First world problem solved.

That's all for now.  Bye.
