Technology is creating new paths in industries across the board. This may be most true in today’s real estate industry. One of the most recent great inventions of our time has been the iPhone developed by Apple. I have been an Apple user for several years, so I was very excited to see their user-friendly emphasis stretching into the cellular world. What makes the iPhone so great? For those of you who have never had the pleasure of handling one of these devices (you can’t call it a phone, because it’s so much more) I will discuss what makes iPhone the best product out there.
The reason for the iPhone’s success can be summed up in one word: integration. You see a phone number listed on a website? Don’t write it down, just tap it to place the call. Got an email from a potential client? Tap their name to save their info. Take a picture with a better than most camera phone and email it straight from your iPhone without having to upload to your computer. Every feature of the iPhone work hand-in-hand to make your life easier.
Not only do iPhone’s features work seemlessly, but third party applications can be downloaded straight to your iPhone (some free, some not) and integrate well with your other features. For instance, this blog post comes to you straight from my iPhone. A (free) handy little app that let’s me keep my blog up-to-date from anywhere. It even let’s me upload pictures right from my built in camera. Here’s one of my new baby girl!
If you’re in the business of real estate ditch the Blackberry and get yourself an iPhone! You won’t regret it!
