You know I fell hard for my Smartphone. My life demanded it and I devour / live by it - daily. I was an early advocate of the Smartphone. Okay, I'll admit it, I was Smart about it! : )
I never rode about town with one of those GPS boxes on my dash because I went straight for my Smartphone. I went for: Sleek, fashionable if you understand. No box on my dash. :)
With the Smartphone, I love the simple and elegant size and yet the power pack. My Smartphone jumps at my command. Some days, I daydream about the Tigers first eight years would have been like had I had my Smartphone at my command. I am sure I would have found a Diaper App. :)
Seriously, as a Mom of Twins, I quickly learned to be more and more efficient with my family, business and life in general. My Smartphone has made that actually fun.
I love that all in one day I can be on a conference call, answering an email (sometimes it is necessary :) and snapping a picture of my children in the midst of an art project using my Smartphone. And I share how I love to stay powered up with my Smartphone.
And now, you can, too! T-Mobile is partnering with me to GIVEAWAY: (2) Smartphones.

I often ask myself if the person is tech savvy enough to use the product.

With the speed of technology updates these days, I always wonder how long it'll be before the product I'm buying is going to be available "new and improved" rendering my gift obsolete!
i always ask what the battery life is.
When I give a wireless gift, I often wonder if I know enough about the product myself to make an educated purchase.
