When it was first announced, I was really looking forward to it.  The &#8220;it&#8221; I&#8217;m referring to is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/iphone\" target=\"_blank\">iPhone<\/a>.   It was disappointing to hear that the iPhone was only on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wireless.att.com\/home\/\" target=\"_blank\">Cingular\/ATT<\/a> network.  When I was in Orlando, I got to go to the mall to an Apple Store where I got to play with an iPhone, even it was very brief.  It was what everyone said it was.  Unfortunately, two things kept me from actually getting an iPhone.  The first: the price.  When it came out, I didn&#8217;t have the money to get either type of iPhone.  The second: Cingular\/ATT don&#8217;t make it out in Wyoming.  So in the end, I was disappointed because I saw it, wanted it, couldn&#8217;t have it.<\/p>\n<p>That meant that I had to stick with my recently upgraded phone, the Motorola KRZR.  The next time I can upgrade will be December 2008, only a year from now.<\/p>\n<p>Then I saw something else I coveted even more.  It was the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.verizonwireless.com\/b2c\/store\/controller?item=phoneFirst&amp;action=viewPhoneDetail&amp;selectedPhoneId=3299&amp;lid=\/\/global\/\/phones+and+accessories\/\/cell+phones\/\/voyager+by+lg\" target=\"_blank\">LG Voyager<\/a> by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.verizonwireless.com\" target=\"_blank\">Verizon<\/a>.  Why did I covet this?  The answer is simple: this phone is actually available on MY network!  The only problem: it&#8217;s pricey and I can&#8217;t upgrade free or cheap yet.  So, until then, I will have to continue to covet the Voyager.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/revtucher.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/12\/voyager-vs-iphone.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/revtucher.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/12\/voyager-vs-iphone-thumb.jpg\" style=\"border-width:0;\" alt=\"Voyager vs iPhone\" border=\"0\" height=\"418\" width=\"614\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s not as bad as you think it is.
