“groovy mother...”

Razrsharp

I was going to skip my traditional annual cellphone-contract-expiration-celebration this year. The Nokia 3650 that I got last year was doing me just fine, thanks. But that all changed when it completely died on me a couple of weeks ago.

Almost precisely a month after the manufacturer’s warranty expired.

Hurrah and huzzah, then, for my American Express card’s Buyer’s Assurance Plan, which refunded me the full $300 I paid for the phone, despite the fact that I got back $300 in rebates at the time.

So, with my free $300, I’ve dropped a re-diculous sum on the supra sleek-n-sexy Motorola RAZR(Amazon.com: Cell Phones: Motorola RAZR V3 Phone (Cingular))—which after rebates, will effectively set me back $70. (Yes, I’m aware that, opportunity-cost-wise, I’m spending $370. But don’t shatter the illusion, please).

The reviews looked positive, it’s got Bluetooth, and it passes the all important iSync test.

I’ll pass on a review once I get my grubby hands on it.
