These month-long blogging breaks are no good, I suppose. This blog, at least, would get far more short posts from me throughout the day if I had easy access to an internet-accessible device as I was wandering about the city. Unfortunately, most of the quick ideas I have go floating off before I get to a point where I could type them in and tether them to this page.

This might change soon. At least, my access to such a device might change soon, and then my theory about increased posting would be put to the test. I'm thinking about picking up an iPhone. I still can't decide if it's actually worth it to pay AT&T the $ required each month, but I'm thinking the ability to watch movies on my commute (I have a pre-video iPod, so I was planning on upgrading that eventually regardless) combined with the GPS and instant internet access might be worth it. There's no question I'll be instantly addicted.

The problem comes in trying to figure out the best plan. Normally for the iPhone there's not much choice, but we might have a chance to pick up an original iPhone for cheap for Kirsten, so we could have one old and one new iPhone on a family plan. AT&T doesn't have much help on its website for people looking to roll an iPhone into a family plan without iPhones, much less for two different generations. Hopefully it wouldn't be too bad - I'm already paying way too much for my plan, but I'm off contract so it's an easy time to move.
