Assignment 4: Friend's Cell Phone

I asked my fraternity brother and roomate, Jake, about his cell phone.

Phone: Palm Treo700w
Carrier: Verizon
Usage:
(While in School) Calls, text messaging, voicemail, alarm, picture, and video recording
(Working over the summer) all of the above, and e-mail
Technology Adoption Life Cycle Category:
I believe that Jake is in the Early Majority category, because he definitely was not one of the first people in line to buy the phone when it came out, nor does he have any sort of deep appreciation or interest in the advancement of the model's technology since its predecessor. However, at the time of buying his phone, it was one of the better choices for what he needed for work, so he purchased it to stay somewhat ahead of the rest technologically.

"What phone would you buy?": Apple Iphone

I do not think this changes his Cycle category.
