To Be Techie or Be Artsy

My Nokia N85 is giving up on me. I was told that repair would cost me PhP1,700. Whaaaat????

Though barely 2 years, this 'freebie' phone from my SMART contract was a subject of torture for my toddler/ pre-schooler. I started working again so I have more license to satisfy my wants once in a while. But anyway, I was given another Nokia unit by my office and well, I should say it was more battle-scarred than my N8. I am not complaining though. I'm blessed to have 2 disjointed phones than have nothing.

Hubby is suggesting I should get an Iphone. I am notoriously kuripot. Stingy. Tight. Though I have the tendency to splurge. But my fear is to expose my daughter to computer games. I'm still too old fashioned to introduce her to the virtual world. That's why I do talks about open ended play on the side. I'm Tita Loot.



But everyone has an Iphone!

Ugh. An Iphone or this for my hubby... a Michael Cacnio sculpture from his balloon series.


I really go for the latter. But what about my disjointed phones?
