I upgrade every year or so, but then again, I do that with cars too ;-) Either way, get yourself a new phone that does all you want it to so it'll last you another 10 years!<BR/>As for TiVO and DVR...what the hell is wrong with you man????

I don't even have a camera phone. My poor cellphone provider is so sorry that they ever took me as a client (as if they had a choice!) My Tracfone account has over 200 min on it that I've had for 2 years now...I have to buy 60 min every 3 months and that's about all I use in about 6 to 8 months. My friends laugh at me...I never wanted this phone in the first place so I don't use it for idol chit chat...it's for serious business only. Like "Hey Jen, where is that store?...okay thanks, see ya!" CLICK<BR/><BR/>But I will admit that it's nice to have when we're on vacation...the extra charges for the calls are hardly noticed since we're not paying for the phone in the hotel.<BR/><BR/>I posted my spaghetti sauce recipe for you...but I'm guessing that you're a jarred sauce guy. ;o) I would be happy with jarred sauce, but dh won't eat the onions...he picks them out. So I make sauce with no onions for him.Renee Nefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167893445846427824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6006953.post-74067720239670111452007-04-17T10:20:00.000-05:002007-04-17T10:20:00.000-05:00I don't think girls would notice your phone at all...I don't think girls would notice your phone at all unless it was super high-tech.

LOL! <BR/><BR/>My cell is archaic, we have a home made TiVo a.k.a. the nuclear bomb because I'm not really sure that it isn't nuclear weaponry. And I just got an iPod last year so I guess I'm on the dull edge as well. I don't really care either.

It always helps to hear from people who are in the same boat.<BR/><BR/>Lass: Yeah, it seems like I received a couple of DVD's as gifts before I ever had a player, too. Another thing about technology to me is, if I've never had something, then I don't know what I'm missing. And that's OK for now.<BR/><BR/>GirlFPS: Oh yes, lower price is definitely an advantage of waiting.<BR/><BR/>Lux: Wow, I think even Wilma had a TV. Well, at least you could watch <I>24</I> online, you know, if you chose to ;)<BR/><BR/>Traveling Chica: Muchas gracias, chica.<BR/><BR/>Sage: I understand that sentiment. Still, I don't carry my camera everywhere. There have been times when I've had an opportunity to take a great )(read: blogworthy) spur of the moment picture, but with the poor quality of my phone, it just didn't work out. <BR/><BR/>Esmerelda: Aww, thanks.
