    Guess no one is working today or my cell phone woes didn't strike anyone as funny.

    Heh... not supposed to slam "Dash" phones against the "Dash"... that's what makes them break. 😛

    I didn't have nearly as many cell phone woes as you this year. Now - if you throw in BlueTooth headsets into the mix, now THAT's a different story...:) I can count 8 from last year (2 unusable, 3 lost, 1 stepped on, and 1 refusing to charge).....

    And the sad part? The cheapest one of the bunch is the best performing:)

    Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency on my part...unless you're my manager...or a director and above...or a really loud-spoken end-user..All right - what was my emergency again?

    LOL, I survived with 1 headphone, though most of my phones didn't have bluetooth :). I did lose it for a few weeks, but found it. This was after I lost my first one in 2007, bought this one, then found my old Nokia. A couple days later I lost it again, and I know it's in the house somewhere. 🙁

    The first "Dash" actually broke when I tossed it on the passenger seat in the Prius from about 3" above the seat, it bounced and hit the floor. Screen cracked. That was a lesson about them being very fragile. Can't remember how I broke #2, but #3 was in my front pocket, bad idea, and I was feeding horses, banged into a post and it broke the screen again.

    My wife has a Jawbone, which is much better than other headphones, at least for the people on the other end, but at $120, I'm not sure it's worth it. My $50 headphone has worked great.

    Hadn't thought of it THAT way... heh... it sounds like a pretty good place to build a straw man doc, as well. 🙂
