Thanks for taking part. It's the last one I'll be doing for a while, honest.

Yep
Twitter and iPhone came into my life together, and rather worryingly I'm very attached to both of them.
I am hopelessly devoted...
...to my iPhone. It's genuinely sad.
No..
Decided I had to get just before the new model was leaked. I'm now thinking I should stay with my BlackBerry for a bit...
I've got
3GS envy now.
:-(
I voted no
but really it should be 'not yet' - I think I'm able to upgrade in Sept or Oct.
Not yet
Does an iPod Touch count?
I don't have an iphone...
I have an Android! (and I love it)
Me too
Made-up with my Android. Running multiple apps is boss.
Me too
A lovely shiny new HTC Desire.
I was all set to get an iPhone until I spoke to my phone provider's upgrades department, who told me I could get a nice discount for being a long-term customer of theirs on any phone I wanted... except an iPhone.
Android it is, then. It does everything an iPhone can do, with a better camera and screen, and free sat-nav to boot (Google Navigation).
Yes
3G ...coz i didn't realise the 3GS was being launched about two weeks after i signed up DOH !
Hmm.
Market research into gizmos.
This means ads for stuff other than obscure music labels and pricey vodka in forthcoming issues..
Hmmm
If only it were as simple as you make it sound.
I've wondered for a while.
I've always assumed that heaps of advertisers are camped outside the doors of Word Towers, desperate to hawk their tawdry wares in the august journal. "Nay" have the editorial board said "And thrice nay. Get thee behids us, agents of Satan. We shall have truck only with record labels based in the lake district who, with the help of us, may sell upwards of two hundred CDs a year. We have no need of your vulgar new new money, you panderers of cheap geegaws and ephemeral electronic trivia."
Meanwhile, Fraser, sweating like a glassblower's arse at the thought of countless freebies, tries to show that The Massive are really, really interested in stuff like the new Nokiarola Webshagger Turbo Nutter Satsuma Castanet 300Tb 987Ghz 250 Kw 35Mpix Widescreen Wibbleding. And they've got one he can have to try out..
I'm not a hippie, honest...
...but I still refuse to get a mobile phone. Call me when I'm at home. Or better still; don't.
I talk to people all day at work. When I leave I just want to shut up and listen to music, not to friends giving me blow-by-blow reports of their equally boring lives.
Sorry. I'm an old grouch, but I like it. Next I'll be leaving home wearing a hairnet and slippers, talking to myself - but everyone will assume that I'm speaking on the phone. That'll be great!
I've had a mobile phone for 17 years
It's got to the point that if I leave home without it, I get panicky.
"What if the car breaks down?" "What if there's an emergency?" "What if there's a problem with the kids and no-one can get hold of me?".
Having said all that, if it's not a call from my husband or mother (or, say, my daughter's school), I don't answer my mobile (or my home phone for that matter) unless it's actually convenient for me to do so. As I see it, the phone is for my convenience and not other peoples'.
Luddite Alert
I am gonna take a great leap forward soon.
I dont have an iPod/ iPhone/ mp3 player.
I will buy an iPhone very soon and wont be a Luddite anymore.
One question to The WORD Massive then :
WHERE WILL I GET THE BEST DEAL ON A 16GB BLACK IPHONE 3GS ??
O2
I got mine on contract with O2. It's not too expensive (i'm not paying anymore than i was with my old phone which was a sim card only deal).
iPhone 4 coming out soon, remember...

No..
..one of my guitar students has one and it's the biggest load of shite I've ever seen.
(and I don't care much for Macs either)
