I did in fact get my new iPhone. I guess I left the blog kinda hanging on that…

Let me just say, What a debacle! Getting a new phone should not be so hard! Seriously. That said I am so glad I went thru it. I like being one of the idiots out there “first”. LOL. So after my 3 hour wait the SECOND day I was finally next. I was so sure my activation would be fast. I knew which phone I wanted (8G, I have a brand new iPod Classic that is huge so no need for 16G), I knew I qualified for the upgrade, should be smooth. After another 20 minutes (I know, right?) a “specialist” approached me. We got to work. He fetched the phone, took my info, and entered it into the activation handheld thing. We waited. The result came back fast: “Error. Account does not qualify”

WHAT!?!

As you probably know I am getting the new iPhone on the 11th (or as soon as I possibly can since I work that weekend). So I have been watching the iPhone news pretty closely to be sure I can transition. You see, I’ve not had mine *that* long, and there is a 2 year contract and all… Most of those questions are now answered:

iPhone 3G questions, answered

I can’t even wait..

It’s true. I am now known as a “waiter” at the ol’ VW service center. It even says so on my paperwork. The (other) service advisor told me that he didn’t advise my waiting for todays service to be completed. Nice. Well I was pretty vocal about waiting for nothing the last time. I guess they’d remember that.

I wasn’t supposed to be waiting today. Richard was supposed to come with me to drop off the car, and then we were going to go to the gym. But someone had a chocolate martini too many last night… I didn’t have the heart to drag him out so early today. I told him to get here as soon as he could.
