i am a typical American consumer and work in the wireless world and a gadget fiend. I like the newest stuff as thats the coolest to me and millions of other tech junkies
you can always spot a non tech junkie as they are rocking the bb 7290 
i have gone from bb 7290 to 7100 to smt 5600 to bb 8700 to treo 750 for a month to bb pearl all in just my last two years.
the market likes american consumers as they like to buy in upgrades and not in stages. weird wacky world we live in |
They have a name for that type of consumer, it's called sucker(LOL) just playing. I love gadgets, and I am always chasing the next greatest thing, but I refuse to buy a crippled device or one that is (DOA). I am not asking for the holy grail of smartphones, but it would be unwise to shell out that much money on a device that you know will be obsolete in less than 6 months. Look at how people feel about the Treo series, and I am one of the suckers who bit the bullet, Never again, I say never again.
