I would have been an iPhone early adopter and Apple would have me locked in, probably with both phone and tablet, but for the fact that there was no way I was doing business with the ripoff-artist company known as AT&T. I'm still unsure how that exclusive partnership transpired. What it did was cause me and millions like me to wait, and it gave Google/Android time to catch up enough to have a viable marketable product that now had pent up demand. Millions of potential iPhone customers, had it not been for AT&T, were lost to what would become their primary competitor(s) in the smartphone market. Google/Android and now Samsung. It seems to me Apple didn't play that game quite right. :)
When I got home from Chicago after the PDML gallery opening, I found myself in the position of being a customer for a new smart phone. I had seen your Android device in use by then, and decided that this was the way to go. Being the retard that I am, I ended up with a Blackberry, which was a decision I questioned it from the start, and regretted within months.
How you could have missed that the art gallery was a 10 minute walk from the hotel is beyond me, but it is what it is, and I saw a lot more of Chicago for it.
