Can't believe it

these are the phones that I've gone though since 2000 till now

1st phone, motorola v2088 with interchangeable front bezel and keypad illumination. i have like 4-5 bezels which i always changed based on mood and situation
ericsson T28. thinnest phone on the market at that time. it's selling point

ericsson T39 after lost the above. chose it since at the time like the flip phone

1st nokia phone, nokia 6510. very small phone. the shortest phone in the market at the time probably

then, nokia 6610 after i dropped the above from the 1st floor of my house all the way down the stairs
after somewhile, back to a basic phone, nokia 2600
then changed brand to motorola, L7 SLVR. the phone that started the ultra slim phone trend. but smallish screen
afer the keypad died on me, changed to nokia 6300. very solid construction. aluminium parts. at one time, at least 3 people on my office floor used this, and a few others around me using it
then changed to nokia 5610
actually bought this twice after the 1st one met an accident and broke beyond repair. then the second one was recently stolen when my car was broken in

now i reverted back to this, nokia 6300

actually was thinking of buying the nokia 5610 again, it really does fit my requirements, very good camera, nice form factor, good looking and not that expensive. but no way i'm gonna buy the same phone 3 times!

until now i still cap myself to below RM1000 for a phone. i really admire people who keep on changing their RM1k+ phones. does it really worth that RM1k? or is it just to be the first kid on the block? and i think there's no way i'm gonna splurge more than RM2k on a phone e.g. N9x series, etc.. etc.. in the end of the day, it's just used to make calls and SMS

well to everyone to their own i guess
