No iMessage + No iPhone = No Friends, According To This Report

The Verge reported on how losing iMessage could mean losing your friends, after an article by The Huffington Post shared how life for a 14-year old girl, Casey Schwartz, revolved around the use of her iPhone. Though, I must ask, who's life doesn't revolve around their iPhone?

The article shares how a friend of Casey's was cut out of the inner circle because she had yet to upgrade to an iPhone. Casey said it wasn't because she didn't like her, only that she couldn't stay connected to her like she could with her other friends by using apps such as iMessage.

I think this pretty clearly shows that if you buy an iPhone, you get to hang out with the popular kids. Well, maybe not, though it will certainly keep you connected.
