iPhone Blogger (again)

Here's a little context regarding the previous post. My current phone contract is coming to an end and I'm planning to hook up an iPhone. My desire has been doubled due to Ciara's recent acquisition of the 8GB version; watching her use it makes my phone look so primitive and un-cool. I want one.

The chalet we're staying in this season, in Morzine, is missing an Internet connection, also primitive. So, I was wondering if it would be practical/easy to update my blog using an iPhone. Hence the quick test.

I'm obviously not up-to-date because there are apparently a few blogger apps available for the phone and I haven't even seen them. There are ftp programs too - although I don't know how flexible the process of getting some photos taken with the phone onto this website will be? I pretty much always downsize photos, or edit them in some way...

There's also the question of network coverage - will 3G be available out there?

Still, it's a possibility, and it might turn out to be really handy. I'll just have to wait and see...

Be sure and check out one of the new android phones as well. It's not the sleek toy that the iPhone is, but it's fairly powerful and open so you're going to see a lot more apps for it. Last I read, it tends to load websites nearly twice as fast as well - but I have no idea how reliable that info is.
