My friends George and Stephen and I always want to update our cellphones to the newest and greatest.
Today, one of us is living the dream, and it ain't me. So the question posed is:
How long should you wait before you trade in your naturally crappy cellphone for one a bit more svelte?
With number portability, which George is going through right now, it would seem like an ideal time to trade in that clunker and mediocre service for your dream cell. Though there is a minor glitch:
The entire [switch over] call, including a phonetree misstep and adding additional service to my account only took 11 minutes. The only problem is the fact that my old number will ring "out of service" for up to 14 business days. I wish it would just ring to my old cell phone...
Was it worth it? Well, his new phone is pretty sweet. So I would, for now, say yes. But he's only had the phone for a couple of hours...not enough time to gauge whether or not he is missing important calls because his old number is defunct.

Exactly when the next model that is better than George's phone comes out.

Right. And I need to call them up and pay one dollar less than he did. Though I think that might be hard because as I recall they are paying him thirty bucks to get the phone in rebates.

I'm going to negotiate a pension when I go to buy.
