It’s my first day in New York City. My flight was uneventful,on time, and going through security was a breeze. I caught the metro to mid-town where I could by the new Motorola Android phone. The Android is software designed to deliver a more personalized and customizable experience on the cellphone. It’s basically Motorola’s answer to the Iphone and the Blackberry, but more advance. The phone’s been on the market since last November , but I wanted to buy mine in New York and not over the net. I guess I just wanted to feel a part of something grand.

It was still very cold outside, with traces of snow on the ground, so walking around was pretty unpleasant. I found the Verizon store at went inside, the sales agent was very helpful and explained most of the operating functions for me. I can’t wait to use it! I’ll probably check my emails, twitters and Facebook accounts first. I went outside and sat down at a bus stop and started playing with my new toy. Then this poor guy, probably schizophrenic, sat down and started rambling on. He didn’t seem to be a threat, but he was a big guy. He was clearly not ‘with-it’, so I was a little concerned. Finally, a bus arrived and he hopped on it, whew! I thought I’d have to fight him to the death over my new Android. Welcome to New York!

I decided to catch a cab to Chinatown for lunch, I looked up the restaurant on my Android and gave the taxi driver the address. The place was busy! I had to actually take a number and wait in line. It took 45 minutes to get a seat. It reminded me of the Seinfeld episode where Jerry and Elaine and George couldn’t get a seat at a Chinese restaurant. While I waited, I decided it was time to book a local hotel on my Android. It was so easy! Wow, all the things I can do on my phone was so revolutionary!

The wait for a table was worth it, I had the steamed dumplings filled with soup, they even come with their own instructions as to not get scalded when you eat them. I had five in total, they were so delicious, no wonder there’s a wait for this place: Joe’s Shanghai . Of course I found this great restaurant by uploading an application that randomly picks great restaurants for the more adventuresome person. Now, I wonder if there’s an app for me to upload that will randomly pick a great guy for me to date!
