Mostly successful

I’ve just finished three days at Watson Research (two in Hawthorne, one in Yorktown), and I actually accomplished most of what I came out here to do. I even managed to pick up a geocache, did a lot of walking, and found a good ice cream place (Main Street Sweets in Tarrytown), which probably undoes the good of walking.

And of course, I played with my iPhone a lot. I hope someone comes out with a replacement earphone/microphone combo with smaller earbuds; I can’t keep these in my ears unless I hold them there, which is not terribly practical! Other than that, I’m still a happy camper, though I wish the iPhone had GPS. Yeah, I know…that’s how they’ll get me to buy iPhone 2.0.

The iPhone also makes it easy to take and share photos, whether they’re worth sharing or not. See my flickrstream for proof.

Tomorrow morning, it’s back to JFK for the flight home. I’m ready.

The joys of travel

The phone rang early this morning. It was American, telling me that my flight was delayed several hours so l wouldn’t be waiting too long at the airport. But they also said they could get me on an earlier flight if I could make it…so I zipped out of the house and to SFO. Carpool stickers are nice to have.

There was a long line at the gate, but it was for a different flight and now I’m on the plane waiting to be told to turn the iPhone off. Typing a posting on this is difficult, but it seems to be getting easier as I go.
