RIP Dear Cell Phone


My poor crappy cell phone finally died this morning. It fell off the side the couch onto my linoleum entryway. When I picked it up the antenna was completely missing. I've been expecting this crappy phone to die one of these days. I'm not happy about it but I knew it was cheap and wouldn't last long.

So now is the time to invest in a new phone. I think I like the LG Shine or maybe the Nokia N75. I'd like something that closes over the number pad (because I hate having to remember to lock my phone!) and that has a decent screen and camera phone. Maybe a Sony Ericsson W580i. A lot of phones have Mp3 capabilities now. That's kind of nice. I will have to visit a AT&T store and see everything in person then check prices online and through eBay. I kind of like those phones with the keyboards for text messaging but they don't have many that are pop up for flip phones. This AT&T Tilt looks nice but it's not work 500$.
I've been debating about changing wireless service at the end of my contract. I love my roll over minutes with AT&T. It comes in especially handy when my rental goes vacant and I go 500 minutes over my plan. I am not sure what I will do but I new this was coming.
Why do dang phones have to be so expensive anyway?

Jeff ruined like 3 phones in one month once. It was crazy. It was all death by water. Luckily most of them were work phones. We have Verizon and it is ok.
