In the words of Henry ford, "Always be loyal to your brand." I dont like changing mobile phones, or numbers frequently. I have been useing the numbers for may years. I prefer to stay on the same number rather than losing any contacts with friends.

Considering that I only use the phone for what it was intended to be used for, I don't really change it that much. I tend to use my phone a lot because of work. But even than, I only use it for calling & some text messages, I don't really need all that much on my phone. I did however, had to change it few times before because I had a change in position in my work I needed an access to emails & I was on a road a lot. So I've used Blackberry for about 3 years. Right now, I'm using motorola v8 but I do need to go back to blackberry soon.

Once every two years. Just because the mobile phones get better by a landslide every single year but it would be too expensive to go for annual contracts so that's why. I think my next phone is going to be the blackberry bold 9700 or 9800.

I don't usually change phones. I only changed my phone if it get's lost or something. I think the new features are not yet that stable so I set it aside for a few more years waiting for the network providers to adopt. Since sometimes the network providers is not yet ready for the newest phones or i phones making the features unusable. I still prefer the basic cellphone though.

I usually change every year, as I like to keep up with technology as there are always new phones coming along out there. However, the phone I have now, I really do like it, so I more than likely will keep it for awhile and not change, unless there is another one that is better than what I have, which is entirely possible. I do use mine mostly for talking, but I also use it for my emails and internet as well. I don't text all that much, only sending pics back and forth to my daughter. Other than that, I don't use the text feature. Mine does have a lot of features on it, and some I might never use, but they are there if I ever want to use them. Take care, and have a very good day.

I don't really care about updating my phone and getting the latest one. I am fine with my phone.

Oh! I wish I could change my cellphone once in a while but I can't... I couldn't afford to buy those touch screen cellphones... Or those blue berry is it? or blackberry cellphone? But still, I have to be contented of what I have right now... Recently, my cellphone was Motorola V3i then Motorola L600... And now, my sister gave me her cellphone (because she now has an Iphone)... A Softbank 7085C... It has a black small mark in the center of the screen because she put a weight on her as s in the sofa... Still, I'm lucky it didn't break....

I change my cellphone whenever I get bored with it. But it would take a lot of years before I get tired of my phone. Like with the phone I have right now, I've own it for more than two years already and I'm still happy with it but I admit that I'm starting to get bored with it. Maybe I will replace it after two months. I'm eyeing a phone right now because I like it's design and it's functionality. I wish they would release it here in the Philippines though. I would want to get my hands on it. This is your fault. You're making me realize that I want another phone.
