Where the Air Force sends me
My wife and I just set up our new iPhone 4's. I'm currently at my fire dept working my 24hr shift and she's at home.

Tried facetime and it works BEAUTIFULLY! She is literally due (40wks prego) tomorrow and I deploy when my new daughter is about 3 months old. I SHOULD have wifi over there. This is going to make my deployment SOOO much better.

Sorry for the no purpose post. :rolleyes:

Any military members out there debating...GET THE IPHONE 4!
 
Congrats on the baby!
I'm really glad you guys were able to get the iPhone 4.
You deserve it!
:)

Congrats (new kiddo and the iPhone)!

Oh what a perfect time!! This is the type of situation I can see FaceTime really shining!

Take care of yourself over there!
 
Congrats!

Yes what a perfect use for this phone.

Gosh, whole thing sounds like a commercial :D

this is an AWESOME POST!!! congrats and put facetime to good use :)
 
That is fantastic!!! Congrats on the new little 'airman' you have coming. I thought Skype was wonderful when I was in the middle east, but having it on something as small as an iPhone will be even better.
'Git 'er Done!
 
This should definitely be awesome for you assuming the USAF provides you with WiFi. I'd be shocked if you guys didn't have that, but I'm a military novice.

Thanks for the service and hope all you guys come back soon! I know you're not a Marine, but I think my ex-roommate would scream YUT!

So he is in the military then? I thought he said he was at his fire department, so I assumed he was a Fireman.

There are firefighter positions in the military...

Just like there are IT, Police, Logistics...not everyone is a grunt....
 
Congrats on the new baby. Thank you for your service. Take care of yourself over there. Glad to hear you, your wife and daughter will be able to stay connected better with the new phones!
 
His location indicates he's in the Air Force.

JReynolds, I'm so glad the two of you were able to get the iPhones, this is good timing! Congrats on the baby coming and stay safe!
 
It's great to see a gem of a post amidst all of the complaining! Congrats and enjoy your new phone (I know I am)!
 
These kind of things make me happy. This is the PERFECT reason for FaceTime. Congratulations on the baby, and thanks for your service! You guys are very much appreciated! :)
