Ok, if you have The Star newspaper, take the StarTwo pullout and go to page 18 and 19. Read.
If you have done that, you would have noted that children atleast 8 years old each are already claiming "I can't live without my handphone." "Life would be boring without my handphone." "Life would not be complete without a handphone."
I mean, HOLY SHIT! They are only 7+ years old and they already think they can't live without handphones! Not to mention they already have camera phones at such a young age..... Now imagine them in their teenage years, during their rebellious phase. If handphones already mean so much to them, what if their parents take them away?
Suicide? Who knows, only time will tell. If I ever read a report about someone commiting suicide because he/she lost their phone, I will laugh at the stupidity of the parents of the children that can't live without their phones.
And yes, I may be slightly jealous that someone almost half my age has an even better phone than me... Then again, I don't really use "my"* phone anyway, so it's not such a big deal.
Not that I wouldn't want a new one in the future.
"my"* - Mum's old phone that isn't exactly new or old. I use it for communication.
