Damn it.

I gotta admit, If I didn't want so much other stuff that the Iphone has some brilliant features.

but if you look at the prices of these phones (ranging anywhere from $200 to $500), its ridiculous that they wouldnt be made well. i know that 9/10 the phones are free or drastically reduced when you sign up for a new plan. but for those who dont, and just need to replace, its really expensive. any other product that cost on average $300 and died in 1.5 years for no reason, that compnay would be outta business. yet with these phones/providers, they make us think its ok and that it was time to upgrade anyways... bastards!

That is a goddamn good point dude - some might say it's because of all the fucking abuse cell phones have to endure, but I dunno, I try to take good care of mine, and they still die! (well, actually I've only had one die, a Nokia, I lost all the rest :D)
