My business partner (Claire) has a problem.  She is sandwiched between two brand new iPhone lovers (me at work and her partner at home) and she is not enjoying the experience.  Her partner’s iPhone joy was in fact my tipping point moment when I decided that I wanted one.

The other night while at dinner with some friends she outed me as an ’iBore’, she wants it in the dictionary, she thinks it borders on being a destructive addiction.

This pronouncement occurred as I attempted to show my friend some photos of another friend’s newborn baby – it was totally innocent – there was no attempt at app talk or anything (honest!).  As the iBore situation was acknowledged all three chaps at the table produced their iPhones and we got into a big discussion about the power usage of our black shiny boxes and strategies to keep it charged…  oh lordy… what bores!

I am making a commitment to conceal my addiction at work (or at least in front of Claire) ;+)
