Prompted by another tech thread...
I was thinking about getting a new 'smartphone' for superior connectivity, and all the other bullshit. Then I thought, nah, screw it. I'll stay old school-ish. Email on the go would be nice but I'm never away from a computer for too long) So I was wondering how long others have had certain items.
For me:
Mobile phone - almost 6 years (SonyEric T610: reliable and like a tank: dropped many times with no ill effects)
Laptop - 12months. Previous one for 4 yrs.
Digital camera - 4.5 yrs
TV - no, no a flatscreen HD jobbie. An inherited cath-ray thing . Serves the purpose of watching only BBC World. Movies are viewed on laptop.
Mp3. - ipod 3g nano 18mths. love it's squat form not like the newer elongated things. Great for any pocket.
Anyone else?
