Happy Bday Vogue! (2yr today)
I remember standing in line, waiting for my local Sprint store to open just before noon on a Sunday, two years ago today, November 4th - Vogue's USA public debut. The line was only about a dozen people, nothing like all the hype surrounding iPhone's debut several weeks earlier. But I was not interested in that thin, heavy Apple product, it felt (still does) like a cold slab of lead weighing me down and hooking me aboard a ship that would sail away from freedom of choice for a situation essentially dictated by one man. And though my Vogue was going at top dollar ($250), I just couldn't wait. And even though it eventually became available for free (with new contract), I feel like I got my money's worth, and then some, 'cuz it continues to be my choice above all the new phones being released.
