    Default The iPhone Effect :P

    So I guess I'm just curious as to whether it's just me or other people have had these things happen before. I just think it's funny and stupid at the same time lol.

    Today I was on my friend's Blackberry Curve and I tried to pinch zoom on her web browser. I also tried to move her icons by holding down one of the icons on the screen.

    The other day I was playing with my sister's scientific calculator. As I ran out of space to enter more numbers I instinctively turned the calculator to landscape mode -.-

    Anybody else have any funny/stupid stories regarding being on your iPhone too much that you try to apply iPhone-related features/actions to non-iDevice things?

    Those credit card authorization machines that just every store has now... I forget and try and touch it with my finger and then suddenly remember to use that pen after nothing happens.

    Serious. When you are used to using touch screens at your job all day plus an iPhone, you get used to touching screens to make things happen.

    trying to type a message on a blackberry with a physical keyboard has got to be on the most difficult processes I've ever done. Takes me like 10 minutes to figure it out and type it out and send it.

    lol me too. I press all of the wrong buttons too. It makes me wonder how I was ever a BlackBerry user for all of those years pre-iPhone

    Lol ok here's another, I live in Croydon and we have a tram here and I've only used it once when my car was in garage + I hate public transport. So I go to machine and I'm tapping away and it's not working I'm thinking great piece of trash this is so I leave it. Then a young girl behind me starts twisting the dial and buys a ticket looooool I felt like such a clown and no one in the que told me it wasn't touch screen. Jeeze it's 2010 for gods sake :s
