iPhone 4 vs. iPhone 5

Top 5 things I like about my new iPhone 5

1)     Lightweight and noticeably thinner

2)     Camera quality is much better (especially videos)

3)     Nice screen size -- extra row of widgets

4)     Passbook (will be even better when more retailers added)

5)     iOS6  (especially when I update apps not having to re-enter password)

New AT&T Prepaid Smartphone Rate Plan

AT&T is coming out with a new GoPhone prepaid smartphone rate plan.  The new rate plan will begin on October 7th.  The plan offers unlimited talk and text and 1 GB of data for $65.  They say it's designed for smartphone users and saves them $10 from the previous options.  Check out the information here at AT&T.

Blackberry 10

Will the Blackberry 10 save RIM?  With the release and hype of the iPhone5 and the Samsung Galaxy S3 it seems like Blackberry keeps going backwards.  I look for something new from Blackberry at CES 2013. Go here to read more on the release of the Blackberry 10.

AT&T switching to shared wireless data plans.

AT&T is following Verizon's move to shared wireless data plans.  AT&T will let customers keep their old plans for now.  No word if that will change in the future.  Take a look here at AT&T and see if you will switch.
