So in the past six months I’ve openly and freely loved my iphone. I really can’t say I had any complaints. Very few dropped calls. Loads of fun with apps. Reasonably fast internet connection. My usb charger never went up in flames, despite the warnings. I got plenty of time with each battery charge. I thought my phone was perfect, until it got cold here in St. Louis.

Something that never occurred to me when I purchased the iPhone in the summer (clever release date)…You can’t use it with gloves on. It only responds to your bare skin. This poses a major problem and serious annoyance, especially when you’re driving or walking around outside in the cold. It’s really not cool to have to either:

1) Scramble to take my gloves off and get to the phone in time to answer while simultaneously operating a vehicle or walking two large dogs, or…
2) Use my nose to unlock the screen and type in my password.

That little oversight has become a real annoyance.
