not at all, actually. especially since the phone i had before (razr) was crap and i need some way to stay connected to the internet as much as possible. it was well worth the price.

and there aren't going to be any new iphones for some time. it would have to be submitted to the FCC and those documents are public, so we'd already know if apple were working on something to be released 5 months from now. for a long while, the updates are going to be done via firmware/software updates. that's the upside to this thing running OS X or another phone running Windows Mobile as opposed to other phones doing whatever they do.

sellouteater 07.01.2007 02:58 PM

screamingskull 07.01.2007 03:01 PM

i just spent about that much on a bunch of hardware from newegg. stuff that's gonna make me money.

do you expect any returns on your iphone purchase?

and may i ask, not trying to be nosy here, how many months of rent does this equate to? just so you know, student loans cannot be discharged in the event of bankruptcy...

I vote we bring these back, life was much simpler.

Hell yeah, there's nothing like a cell phone that feels like you're ordering an airstrike every time you call out for pizza.

oh, and i forgot to add to my post above

$543 with taxes

with monthly interest charges, late payments, over-the-limit fees--about $2000 when it's finally paid off?

unless you have the cold cash to put down for it, and i mean without diverting funds from rent/transportation/grocery/clothing/health/other-expense-money from it, you have to buy it on credit, which means getting fucked day in & day out until kingdom cums.

credit cards LOOOOOOVE college students. such a cash cow.

i'm not giving you shit for your decision, so i don't see the need to get shit for mine. no, i don't expect any "returns" on my iphone purchase, but considering that i've always had a piece of shit cell phone that i've hated, i decided to treat myself to something that i actually want. fucking sue me.

and it only equates to one months rent (which i still have, by the way), so that's not an issue. i work two jobs so i don't have to worry about money.

and again, i my laptops are my main instruments these days and i'd rather carry around a $500 phone every day than a $2000 powerbook that if it gets stolen, i might as well jump into a river.
