Apple please send me an iPhone. I hate them and everything they stand for. That is why you need to send me one.
I’ve written many articles about what pisses me off about iPhones, iPhone users and all the features the iPhone is missing. I’d say I’m pretty much in the minority as far as bloggers who talk about the iphone so negatively.
With that being said I can see the positives behind the platform and especially the huge following it has generated in just a couple of years. I’ve even written about how Nokia, the mobile phone giant might find itself outsmarted by Apple and all the great marketing.
Apple – Imagine if you could convert me. I write so much about how I hate the iPhone and what it’s missing. If you could turn me around and bring me into the fold, that passion could be directed towards talking about how much I love the iPhone and even into positive debate about how it could be improved. If I could then, in turn convert just a few of my readers to your platform then that phone would have paid itself off in full, many times. Who knows, I might even end up buying a Mac.
During my trial I would give the iPhone exactly one week which is a long time to decide whether you like something or not. If in that time I miss all the wonderful features of my Nokia E71 too much then you will have failed to convert me. I will send it back. If I am converted and absolutely must have an iPhone with me at all times then I get to keep the phone. For free! Either way, I will write about my experience. If Apple fail to answer my call to give me an iPhone then I will continue to write about it in a objective way having not used one for long enough to forgive its shortcomings in favour of its advantages over other smart phones.
So Apple, please send me an iPhone so I can fall in love with it. It would be a great marketing move. I’ll blog and twitter about my conversion experience daily.
