The iPhone 3G Interview

Aug 29, 2008 Print This Post

What could be better for an Apple Fanboy than to be interviewed about his new iPhone 3G for the paper?
You can read the whole article here: AT&T’s latest network rolls out | lansingstatejournal.com | Lansing State Journal. But here’s the important part:

AT&T Inc. has rolled out its faster 3G data network in the Lansing area, something that should let new iPhone users tap into some of the device’s new features…

The upgrade was great news to iPhone user Noel Heikkinen.

The pastor at Riverview Church uses his phone for e-mail, his calendar and contacts when he’s out at meetings or traveling.

“As I’ve been traveling, I’ve loved 3G. It’s way faster,” he said. “In Lansing, it’s been killing me that I haven’t had it.”

That changed abruptly last week when Heikkinen was surfing the Web on his phone.

“It kept flaking out on me,” he said. “I was getting all mad, and then suddenly, ‘blip,’ it was 3G. I was ecstatic.”

Growing up in the Lansing area, I wanted nothing more than to get out. My exit strategy included a complex mixture of schemes for an urban church plant, iProducts, and an elaborate Bollywood car chase scene with zombies and catchy techno music.

As a 40 year old man, I find myself entrenched in the Lansing area at a church I love (Riverview), with 4 kids I love more (a high schooler, a junior higher, a middle schooler, and an elementary schooler), and a wife I love the most (Grace).

Instead of planting one church, I dream of helping hundreds get started without ever leaving my home base. I still love my iProducts and use them as tools to help lead and teach the thousands who attend Riverview. And when no one is looking, I blare the techno music and send my unimpressive resume to casting agents for Bollywood zombie films.
