Mobile phone? No, I want an IPHONE!

I got a new mobile phone last year as a birthday present. It was a nice gesture, yes - the phone however was absolute crap.
It took me almost a year to figure out how to add a contact in this phone! I had to go back through all my messages and reply to previous messages if I wanted to text someone, and calls were a problem, I had to look write down the numbers and keep them safe (which is a real hassle if you live in a house like mine where things get lost easier than money is spent!)

So now I've decided to get rid of my current phone and get an iphone, which is great because I'm comfortable with apple - it's simple and easy to use. Plus I already have an ipod touch, it and an iphone are pretty similar so I already know most of the functions.

The problem is my current phone. It's under a 24 month contract, however I've still got 12 months left. So I have to cough up $380 to break out of it. Ah... perfect, eh? Well, it's better than a year. But leaves me cashless for about 3 months. It's better than putting up with the crap I have now... I think no phone at all is better.

It's worth it.

The point of all this ramble is that you have to work for things. Things won't just magically come to you because you want it to. I think that nowadays we forget things like this. We have a lot more technology now, things are more easily accessible. But you still have to work to get where you want to be.
