iPhone a must to buy for some people, are other phones not good enough

5 Reasons Why You'll Want to Buy the New iPhone From iStore

Sometimes you just can't wait to hold the latest, greatest, must-have gadget in your hand. You want it, and you want it now, and that's all that matters.  The new iPhones are amazing devices, and they have already been hailed by international reviewers as "simply the best smartphones ever".

But when it comes to the new iPhone from Apple, waiting just a little longer for the official release is by far the wiser move.

  

Did you know that until late April 2014 the iPhone was not officially available in Nigeria?  That’s why we all looked for options, like paying a friend or family member to get it abroad, or worse pay massively over the odds when they first come out.  What’s worse is that for all that money we did not get warranty.  Now that has all changed, Apple will be launching the new iPhone sooner than we all expect.  Of course, as

HEART ATTACKS AND WATER !
How many folks do you know who say they don't want to drink anything before going to bed because they'll have to get up during the night.

Heart Attack and Water - I never knew all of this ! Interesting.......
Something else I didn't know ... I asked my Doctor why people need to urinate so much at night time. Answer from my Cardiac Doctor - Gravity holds water in the lower part of your body when you are upright (legs swell). When you lie down and the lower body (legs and etc) seeks level with the kidneys, it is then that the kidneys remove the water because it is easier. This then ties in with the last statement!
I knew you need your minimum water to help flush the toxins out of your body, but this was news to me. Correct time to drink water...
