I was a late adopter of the iPhone technology. I thought I didn't need ANOTHER gadget to keep track of. It wasn't until I heard some friends discussing their iPhones that I realized that an iPhone could replace many of the gadgets I used. Not only did the iPhone cut down on the number of gadgets I needed to carry, but it saved me money too!
I was curious to see exactly how much money the iPhone could save me, so I went window shopping. I looked forā¦

'Hope' is the thing with feathersā
That perches in the soulā
And sings the tune without the wordsā
And never stopsāat allā
And sweetestāin the Galeāis heardā

And on the strangest Seaā
Yet, never, in Extremity,
It asked a crumbāof Me.
