Pointless thread I know..

I WANT MY PHONE NOW!!!!!!

All this fuss about the apple iphone 5 today is leaving me jealous and in complete gadget lust.
I cant believe that it is still another 6 weeks - Im almost tempted to go out and get a 710 just to quench my thirst for a bit as there is a special on for ?100 sim free

Rant over

Jealous??

I have never been jealous. Not even when my dad finished fifth grade a year before I did.

I know the feeling. I keep on asking myself if I want to stick with WP because I want another cool device. Like an HTC One X, but then I remember why I like WP and it simmers me down. I need to stay off the forums and simply just let it come to me instead of anticipating every feature, spec, build, etc. about the various phones coming out. Driving me a bit nuts too. My wife is tired of me reporting to her what I heard about a windows phone 8 device each and everyday. lol.

I believe this is a problem that plagues many of us. When you are a frequenter of the tech blogs and forums, you become curious about each new device that comes out. Which causes phone envy at times. I used to never worry about the latest and greatest until I started going on the forums. If I just based my purchases on my needs, I would still have a BlackBerry Curve 8330.

I haven't learned to separate my needs from wants yet lol.

Some very accurate reflections and thoughts here, nice to see Im not the only one who feels this way.
I don't want an iphone, but now I have made my choice, I want my WP8 phone now.
Oh well, at least we are 24hrs nearer than we were yesterday..

Nobody has, almost everything we buy is because we want it not need it. So if you want it, get it! You deserve it!

Reminds me of the best seller, written by Brian Griffin, "Wish It, Want It, Do It". LOL, why do so many Family Guy references haunt my thought process?

i think this sums up one of the biggest problem wp8 devices will face; with specs and features there is some parity, but in a few days millions of potential customers will use up their upgrade and preorder a device that is available now, not some time in the next few months

I second that thought. Been saying that through other threads. But it will only affect a small portion of potential WP users. Apple head for the most part are dead set on iPhone

I can understand... I kinda wish I had told the Nokia and Microsoft employees that I would have gladly signed an NDA for an early release unit.
