The iPhone 3G is incredible, no doubt, but I still don't really want one. Why not? Well, to be perfectly blunt, because I seem to have a problem with dropping my current cell phone(s)! (Not that if someone wants to "donate" one to me... )
I've always seemed to be "Butterfingers McKnight" when it comes to cell phones--I'm dropping one at least once a month. I bought a new Razr in 2005, before mass-production made it the best cell phone back then, for the new "low" price of $300 plus tax. Yeah, I thought I was cool. It actually ran better than the mass-produced Razrs, but after about 18 months, the final drop caused it to completely die.
Now I have a so-so Samsung, and I drop the sucker even more, but it seems to be more durable. But I notice the buttons aren't responding quite like they used to. Now, imagine me with an iPhone--I'd drop it fast! However, I hear there's some sort of shock-resistant case... Hmmm... To be continued!
