Finally convinced my wife to go ahead and get an iPhone 4S after she had suffered through multiple failures of her old flip phone. She had been avoiding it because she always thought it would be too hard to learn and use - course she always asks me to use my iPhone to check stuff for her.
Well, she's had it for 10 days and is happily calling, texting, and browsing away, bought herself a nice case, and will be looking for a bluetooth device.
Yeh, it was that easy this year.
