You could buy a used / older version of iPhone. Some of the new applications will work on the old phone.

My cell is 4 years old, scratched, dinged, and works fine. I do not text, don’t do anything online with it, using it only for long distance calling and emergencies. Your VOR knows what is best for you, not the media.

Does anyone really need an Iphone?
Do we really need to be that connected at all times .
Apple Marketing says we need one. Online ad’s on TV bash us over our heads continually saying we need this .
But we dont .
Thats why the stores put the candy in the front rows.
Temptation Factor .
Very costly 3yr deal , approx 100.00 per month
I didnt bite the Apple this time .

The VOR is definitely one I rely on when making important decisions. It’s usually right. The VOR has kept us from getting new cars every 2 years. As a matter of fact the two cars we have are from 1994! Even with 260,000+ miles on one and 179,000 miles on the other they still run great. They get us from point A to point B, so why do we need something new?

I’m still using a PowerBook G4. It’s a workhouse and does everything I need. When it dies or can no long provide me with what I need for my livelihood then I’ll consider upgrading. But for now I am a happy camper.

Having said that, I did get an iPhone last night. My previous phone (Rokr) had died on me 2 months ago and I was using an old phone my mom had laying around. Could I have stuck with it? Sure, it made/received calls, allowed me to text and even had a camera phone/recorder. So why did I upgrade?

1. It was a gift from my hubby for our anniversary
2. Sometimes it’s just time to upgrade.

I know Apple will come out with newer, sexier versions, but I’ll probably keep this one for another 2+ years. I’m just that way. I stick with things. Heck, I’ve been with my husband for close to 20 years. It’s a good thing I don’t upgrade often, eh?

My only question is, Why does the Voice of Reason always have to be such a buzz kill? The other little voice is ALWAYS more fun!
