Angry Rant #3: To Smartphone or not to Smartphone.

So, a friend of mine has convinced me that the HTC desire is probably one of the best, if not the best smart phone on the market - If I were to ever buy one that is.

The idea of having everything in one handy, portable little device seems like a good idea. Being able to play music, record video, fuck around on the internet etc, seems like fun, until one the following occurs:

1:   You leave it at home.
2:   You leave it somewhere other than home.
3:   You leave it in New Zealand after a holiday.
4:   You play basketball with it.
5:   You think your blender will wuss out.
6:   You leave it under the back tyre of your car.
7:   You play chicken with a sledge hammer.
8:   You decide that it's so powerful that it will defy gravity.
9:   Karma.
10: The battery dies and you can't change it.

Should it be in my pocket or in here?

Apart from all those things, I'd defiantly buy one.

  1. And your "non-smartphone" which also does all of the things you mentioned, is exempt from these 10 problems?
