Personal Blog of Mike Bowden

Some of you may have noticed the new page, look up, that I’ve added. Well as you may have guessed, I’m trying to raise enough money to buy a used iPhone on eBay. Why? Well there are a number of reasons for this, the main reason is well, I want one!

But there are other logical reasons that some of you may appreciate more than me just wanting one, cause really, who doesn’t?

Another main reason for wanting to get   of an iPhone is for development purposes. I’ve been wanting to get into developing applications on the iPhone since they were released, but I’ve never had enough cash to purchase one, nor did I want to switch carriers. So with a little research, I’ve concluded that I can in fact run an iPhone with my current cell carrier, T-Mobile. So I figure it couldn’t hurt to have some of my readers pitch in and help me achieve my goal of raising the $300 needed to purchase a used iPhone. Of course I’m going to try and get one cheaper than $300, but that is the average that they are currently going for.

So if you’re in a giving mood, then lend a few bucks to a poor blogger to he can realize his dream of owning one of the greatest cell phones ever to be invented. Way to go Apple!

Now, what’s in it for you if you donate? Well, if you donate $5 or more, I’ll allow a link to be placed with your donation listing until the goal is met on the donation page. Think of the back-link capabilities with Google.. huhh huhh … Come on, you know you want to. :) If you donate less than $5, your name will be displayed and the amount that you donated and all those that think it will be funny to donate a penny, go for it, those will add up quickly.

So how about a donate?
