I hope the person that stole my Samsung blue face phone, in H.O library back in 2004, is still using it.

The only thing worth dying for in this life is your vision...... Your conviction and your faith........ Don't even die for your dreams..... All dreams are illusion until you have a clearer vision, to dream is to be asleep..... Nobody dreams while he is awake.......dream is for sleeper..... Vision is for waker.......... Be Awake

One word, VANITY! Vanity yesterday, vanity today, vanity tomorrow. No matter how they come , material things will always remain vanities, FROZEN ASSETS! To think that people either hurt themselves or others just to acquire these still make me wonder .
A very strong message from you. Thanks

These designs will make a come back in modified forms. If anything they look much better in design than the boring iPhones and Androids in use today.

Truth. My dad was one of the first sets of people that bought Mtn sim cards for #50,000 and he got his Alcatel phone for about #100,000.

Can you imagine that I bought my first Mtn sim card for #5000 in year 2001 to flex with my first phone, a Nokia 3310. I could remember my university room mate was seen as a big girl then, showing off with her bird flip phone. Wow! Nothing lasts for ever.

Exactly. Back then I never thought I would ever own a simcard because of how expensive it was. How things have changed.
