tech lust: Nokia e90 Communicator
It doesnt happen often, but it does happen. I am stricken with a case of tech lust so intense that it makes me a little ashamed. How DO you justify a thousand dollar phone? “I want it” isnt really enough for me to convince myself. But wait, there’s more!
My current phone (the Nokia 6101, one of their first widely-promoted flip phones) has served me honorably the last two years. Wear has worsened it tho; I had to glue a piece back on over the antenna and the paint on the front part is chipped and ugly.
So very different from this new beauty, which should be available in the US any day now (if it isnt already?!). The e90 would be my PDA and camera (both gadgets I need to upgrade) as well as mobile internet and music player. And phone–it’s a phone, too.
M already informed me that I am NOT getting this for my birthday. He said an iPhone is more likely. Not to be ungrateful but, I dont want an iPhone. Nokia no ka oi!
