Hello iPhone 4S, I'm Jason
Today I received my iPhone 4S through work as my business phone.
After carrying around my Galaxy SII for a year the smaller size is actually nice. I don't even mind that the screen is smaller. I don't do a lot of multimedia watching on my phone and since this is my work phone I will not be pushing my luck in running up the data usage even though it is unlimited. I mostly use email, text the wife, look things up when out shopping, or snap pictures with my personal phone and I don't see much changing with my work iPhone. The size seems to fit better in my pocket too as I carry a number of things in mine and the SII never seems to sit right.
I do get to use if for personal calls and can basically use it as my personal phone as well if I choose to within reasonable usage (many people do this at my work). I do have to pay $20/month as a usage co-pay but worked covered the cost of the phone and monthly charges. This is a sweet deal considering my personal phone doesn't have unlimited data and even though it is under my wife's cell account it still costs us a lot more for data.
With the iPhone 5 coming out shortly there have been a few people say I should have waited. I figured since the phone is free and I needed to get a work cell sooner rather than later I would just get the 4s for now and if I like iOS and the phone I will upgrade my personal phone to the iPhone 5 when I can upgrade or just drop my personal one all together and when I can upgrade my work phone I will just get what ever comes after iPhone 5 in two years.
We will see over the next few months.

New Job
So this week I started a new job. I am happy to not be working for a bank finally. Although it does suck to lose vacation (4 weeks cut down to 2).
I am happy to see that this new job actually spend time trying to onboard you instead of how it was at my last place. Where they said here is your cube, watch these online videos and don't call us if you need anything because we can't help.
New place is such a nice change of pace so far. Hopefully it worked out for the best in the long run.
OK it wasn't that bad... but still it was very lacking.
