That Motorola Razr phone is pretty sleek.....but I can't pay that much for a phone.



I also like that new LG chocolate mp3 player phone that they've been advertising to death....maybe it's the fact that Goldfrapp's music is being used in the commercial that's selling me hmmm.....nah the phone just plain sexy.




I still wouldn't pay a lot for a phone though.....mine is pretty basic with no snazzy features. lol

i paid around $150 for my phone and i thought that was pretty expensive!! and the only way i could afford it was that it was a treat for me with my tax return money!


seriously... oh my god. i have to find these phones from Harrods.... i have to see whats worth 25,000GBP.

yeah, but you use it for your business right? so can you write it off your taxes? or how does that work over there?
