I can count on one hand and have fingers left over the number of times I had film developed in the past five years. For as little as I need to take pics, I simply don\'t need a digital camera...I know I make a lot of frivolous purchases (good example was the LSE), but the camera is something that I would not use often enough to justify the purchase. And when I buy stuff like electronics, I tend not to buy the loss leaders...the cheapest one out there might work for some, but I just don\'t do things that way.
As to cell phones- I am still using my old StarTac. It does what I need in a cell phone- gives me a voice connection. I don\'t need all the other crap in what amounts to disposable phones...I know too many people that have to replace the stuff the stores foist upon them with the contracts, meanwhile I am pushing six years with the StarTac (replaced at that time only because they went all-digital in this area).
