How many of you are obsessed with cellphones?

[gellio]

Ok - I just to find out if I am the only one who is obsessed. My friends and boss give me crap for getting new phones all the time. I first got cell phone service in Sept. 2000. Since then, I have had:

Nokia 5190
Ericsson T28
Nokia 8290
Motorola Startac (hated it, sold it right away)
Samsung 8500
Samsung 400
Ericsson T68
Samsung S105

When I got the T68 in July 2002, I said, "this is the phone I have been waiting for." In October 2002, I purchased the S105 and said, "I'll never get another phone." Now I want the Nokia 3650.

How many of you are like this? Do some of you use multiple phones at a time?

Just curious. Thanx.

<<<look at my profile and this is just after i switched all my previous phones to just GSM service hmmm...about 2 months ago

I first got cell phone service back in December of 1999. Since then I would upgrade to a new phone every 6 months. I stuck with the V60 for quite a while - about a little over a year because that was the best phone Verizon had to offer back then. Right now I can't find the 'right' phone.

[color=][font=][size=]I get a new cell phone every year, more or less... not as bad as some of you though [/size][/font][/color]

I was content with just my Nokia 5165 until I found these forums. Since then I've gone nuts(and broke) over cell phones.

I myself I must admit am hooked on cellphones. Although, I have seen some of you guys who are more of an addict than hooked.

My first GSM was the 6190 then I was using the 8290 for a long time, I tried a V60g but didn't like the menu, then I got (2) 3390's for my mom and sis, then I tried a T720i but again, didn't like the menu, I also have an 8890, and I got my g/f a 6590i...but what I really want is the new 6100.

I wish I can upgrade as often as most of you guys...

Yeah, just got my new 6100, really nice phone, well pleased with it!

[Ghostrider]

Hmm, lets see...about 2 yrs ago, first phone Ericsson t28, didn't like. Got the 8290, loved it...then it went bad w/ the screen thing.

Got the 3390, cuz that's what Cingular was replacing the 8290 at the time.

Jumped onto the T-mobile bandwagon last August, when they were offering 1000 anytime min in So Calif. Got the Motorola V66 ffirst, did not like the phone, switched it out w/ the V60g, didn't like the menu. Exchanged that for the Samsung s105; sold it, didn't like signal strength, & found out I'm not a flip phone type.

Bought the 7210, still have it as backup. Bought a 6590i, ended up selling it, so I could afford the 3650.

That's my cell phone history. I'm really liking the 3650, theres so much you can do w/ it. I keep the 7210 as my backup phone. I work part time as a bartender, so I need a smaller compact phone, the 7210 fits the bill. My day job & most other times, I use the 3650 & I bought the HDW-2 Bluetooth headset too. I'm completely wireless!

So since last August, I've gone through cell phones, trying to find what I really like. The 3650 & 7210 are it........for now. I may sell the 7210, if something better comes along.

well i got my first phone in november last year, it was a ****** little ericson flip phone, the ones that have one line on the screen: heres my record and how long i had each phone

November 2002: Ericson flippy ****** phone- 2 weeks
December 2002: Nokia 3360- 1 month
January 2003: Nokia 3390- 1 month
Febuary 2003: Nokia 6210- 2 weeks
Febuary 2003: Nokia 7210- 1 month
March 2003: Nokia 7650-1 month
April 2003: Nokia 6610- till now

As you can see I have had 7 phones in 6 months, and i dont plan on keeping the 6610 much longer either

Ever since signing up for cell service, I have been on some sort of shared or family plan...that means I buy phones in pairs.

Pair of 5160's, pair of 8260's, then 3360's, then 3390's, then T68i's, pair of S105's, pair of T300's, then pair of 3650's, then a pair of 7210's.

Then of course, I had to get a few when the wife wasn't looking T193, V60g, 8390, 6610, and T68m.

If only I could describe the ridicule and junk I hear from friends and family. I think they mock me!

I need help!! Seriously, this is not a joke...someone help me. Send a medical team or something. This is a small silent plea.
