Gadget Addictions

Currently, i'm holding onto this phone X70. I remembered when it first came out, it cost more than$400. everyone at my part-time job was going ga-ga over this phone. it has a external led and if you set them according to your caller list grouping, it will light up to an array of rainbow colours and can show the picture of the person that was calling because it has a camera attached to the phone as well. very very nice... and because it's a compact flip phone, it slips out of your hand if you are not careful, and that happened to me many many times. drop on carpet, no scratches. but once it hit the cement floor. die la. but though i dropped it on the floor for many times, the phone still work quite well. except for the 'imitation' battery that i bought. it died on me for less than 6months.not because i cant afford the original but the stock has run out in most of the shops. hmm... so its time to upgrade my phone before it decides to 'die on me'. below are a few of my choices: any comments or suggestions?
a black Nokia6230. mysterious. just like me. many functions like radio, bluetooth, new games,downloadable themes, many more...

a new kid on the block. a flip phone too but a little bulky. buttons are big too. for the cork-eyed.(always sending to the wrong people like me).prices have dropped quite a bit since its launch. maybe i'll wait till it drop till $0/= haha...
i held this for about 2 weeks. much much MORE functions. has an organiser, bigger memory for your contacts,internet & email on the go, MP3 player, games, synchronization with your PC etc. but then again, i'm not that busy. i dont have so many appointments to store. so the pda's functions go a little wasted in my hands. so i sold this off.

so i better think of the more 'down-to-earth' phones. can call. can take pictures. sms-friendly phones. if there's a phone that has a BIG umbrella around the screen, whereby it can shield off staring eyes, maybe i'll introduce to Linus*. i noticed that when he sms-ed people if he's next to me, he will tilt his phone. like so afraid i will peek at him. actions like these make people more suspicious. haha... jko!
