How many phones have you had?

How many mobile phones have you gone through in your lifetime?

I have gone through about 3 now, and thats just in a few years, imagine how many it would be after my life comes to and end. lol

Excuse me, I actually went through 4.

It all started when my phone developed an issue that couldn't be resolved. I ordered a new one, covered by my insurance; I then lost that one. I ordered another one for $50 and lost it. So I ordered yet another one for $50. It was hectic, but I'm much more responsible now when it comes to my cell phone.

Ouch hehe. I've had 3 cell phones, total, in my life. When I lived up north, we bought the Cricket pay-by-month phones and I had two (one for myself and one for my g/f). Then, when I moved down south, I bought one that ran into a (wall) accident when I got mad one night (I swear, I'm not usually violent lol). Now, I have a little Nokia from Cingular and I baby it. I love it!

Oh, so roughly everyone has had around 5 to 5 phones each. I see a pattern emerging here.

Just 2...sort of

I've only had 3 phones. With my first phone, the screen cracked and there wasn't anything to do but buy a new one. The second phone I purchased as it was upgraded to work in Europe.

Then my second phone started acting funny. It wouldn't let me answer. I'd open it (flip phone) and the screen and keys would flicker, then do nothing, then flicker, then do nothing. I'd be in the middle of dialing a number and the screen would go blank.

T-Mobile shipped me a replacement of the exact same model.

So if you count the replacement, it's 3. Otherwise, just 2.

Yeah, something is emerging, alright... lol. Do they make them small on purpose, so you lose them?

2. My first was in my backpack in an open pouch and I forgot, and did a cartwheel. So it went splat. Very much in the way of splat.
