earth calling peanut butter....

Like many other modern human beings I have a long list of relationship with cellphones, started when I first became a junior secretary in an environmental company. It took me quite some time to get one, mainly because I don't see the ultimate need to be reached all the time. People can reach me easily, 8-5 at the office, after that at home. But pretty soon it became a necessity.

The past few years I changed cellphones several times, from the ghetto look like this image (taking from the shape of a water bottle with straw, that you have to shake well before use), bought one smart phone, and after some time got a smarter phone. The phone got smarter and smarter that I wonder if it'll outsmart me one day.

During those years I could carry up to 3 phones everywhere. I felt it was just ridiculous. One is personal, one for work, another is a backup that I sometimes would just want to throw in the bin. 2 of them are latest styles of smart phone where you practically can do everything from managing your schedule, browsing, updating your fb status, twit, etc. And like every gadget these days they're not manufactured to last a life time, eventually it fails on you. This time it was my HTC Touch that can slide. I like it so much, I put a lot of data there, and seeing it failing on me I lost interest in updating myself to the latest model. What for? To be dying after a couple of years? Such a waste. I paid good money on that! :(

I still got my BB from work, I can go online with that, and I was ready to just go with 1 smart phone. For the sake of keeping my personal number alive so on my birthday I bought myself one of those crapberry phones where you can only make calls and text. But for now it's sufficient. It was cheap (only 300k) and only limited people know that number that my latest phone bill was only 70k. Not bad!
