Hi Tech ?!?
Friday, January 27, 2006 at 10:27PM Was cleaning my house today (yes, yes, it doesnt happen often, but I did it!!) and I found a box of phones. Never realized I have gone through so many cell phones. Thought I would post the entire collection...
The first phone was purchased in 1998, second on valentines day 2000, then 2001, 2003, 2004, 2005 !! Sometimes, it was due to newer smaller phones available in the market, othertimes because Darling Narayanan decided to drop the cell phone in the toilet !
But the one thing that was common to all the phones ?
All of them were adorable when new, with all the features and the reduced weight. They were all detested after a year because they had problems, either with the speaker, volume, memory , battery life, you name it.. We would buy the phone with glee only to wait for the contract to expire so we could go to another phone.. and this cycle continues.. the latest phone is only 7 months old and we already hate it !! Now we wait for the contract to expire or for an accident to happen.. and we dont have to wait long with the cell phone mafia living with us !!

Hello....Yaar pesarathu.... Oh... sundar.... Little darling narayanan.... What is the sound of water..........Bsssssssssssssssshhhh..... guluk...baluk....gulluk......
Ok.......BTW you never told us that you are a phonemaniac........... Shall we here afterwards call
Cellphone Sundar or Mobile Sundar?
there is a popular joke - " whats common between a cell fone and a wife/gf ? the answer is - you always wish that you had waited longer to get a better model " ..so does ur post has any hidden meaning ?
balaji sir, enna venumna koopidunga..
jagan, have i offended you in some way ? no hidden meaning.. cellphone innikki varum, naalaikki pogum. . adhu contractla odaradhu.. wife/gf andha maadhiriyaa ??

used phone shop eh veklam pola irukke...
But who would buy fones bathed in toilet:)
Nowadays every other month whatever phone we buy gets outdated. Tried to keep up but failed. Have a standard Nokia and waiting for an accident to happen to it
divya, the toilet phone is not in the collection..
smiley, i can send you the telephone mafia to your house to make sure an accident happens..
he he..

wow thats a lot of phones - im sentimental - Id still be using something even when its really in a bad shape
visithra, i am also sentimental.. aaana, if the phone becomes a one way device where i cant hear them or they cant hear me.. cant use it.. most of the flip phones dont last. used to have them on a belt clip. the little one used to do a "scooter kick start" on the cell phone and keep knocking it down !
once she learnt to flush, the rest of the phones were history !
