Not sure when I got my first iPhone. It was when VZ finally offered it. Wife and I got our first mac in early '08, and it was the best computer we ever owned, so we said screw it and jumped fully into the apple ecosystem. Android reminds me of Windows in the fact that right out of the box its great, but when you start to add apps and such, the phone starts to suck. iPhone 4 and now a 5 and 5s. will prob never go back. can't wait for the larger screen!
