Haha! I don't really mean that. LOL.
Okay, back to topic. 8th December, just got myself my 8th phone in this year. Firstly, don't think that I have lots of money to be spent in this matter, I'm just selling out my phone in order to fund in the next gadget. And I don't really always spend on the "monsters" or "legendary species". LOL. All I want is to get the experience of using them.
Here is my listing of phones changed in this year.
2010.12 - 2011.07 HTC HD2 T8585
2011.03 - 2011.04 Sony Ericsson W980 8GB

2011.09 - Currently Nokia N96 16GB
2011.11 - 2011.11 Apple iPad 2 16GB WiFi [10 days]

2011.12 - Currently Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus P6200 16GB 3G+WiFi
Hmm. I can see there's 4 devices that I've used about 10 days. Surely there's some reasons for letting them go that fast.
HTC HD2 is the craziest phone I ever have. I keep flashing from WM6.5 to Android 2.2 to Android 2.3 and to WP7 too. I think it really gets tired when it's with me. LOL. Backup and flash, and restore. I've really spent a lot of times on that phone. And it lets me learn a lot of things about how to use Android. I mean, know how to use, not that kind of oh-it's-damn-easy thingy. Its not complicated, yet it's not so simple.
SE W980. Simple and pretty. I love the design, fold design still gets my attention. Simple Walkman phone with a little bit of "touch" buttons and 8GB storage. Anyway I have bad experience regarding the Fast Port on it. Can't really listen to music peacefully using it.
SE Satio. 12MP camera? My first move to that stage of 12MP camera which is even higher resolution that my 1000D. LOL. Again, I like the design of that phone, and the camera look. However, S60v5 really makes me... having no thought of turning back to it. Touch UI is not ergonomic and not user-friendly. And the phone's performance is slow. I'm still fond of that phone, if I use it as my back up phone, or just some occasions to show it up.
SE Xperia Arc. Again, SE. The reason I let it go in 10 days is its price is dropping like hell. I can't let my cash invested on it becomes thinner each day. So, I sold it fast. If I still have a chance today to have it in my pocket, I will be really happy. I love the design, very slim and classy. Not only "like", but I "love" it. But anyway, its performance... I feel like my old HD2 is even better than it, except the camera and display. I get quite disappointed with SE for making so few internal memory on it, I just don't have enough space to install all my apps. That is bad.
Samsung Galaxy Tab. Finally, Samsung. I'm so looking forward to have a Galaxy device since Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab is so popular, and most importantly, they looked tempting and tasty to me. I must take one, I tell myself. At last I choose Galaxy Tab, 7" display is in my hand! I can't measure how bulky it is, or how useful it is. It can be fitted into most of my pockets, but it really produces a big bulge. LOL. And it is not so convenient and not light weight. But... Its 7" display trades off almost every trouble. Better display, better web browsing experience, better multimedia and gaming purpose. The problem is that it "only" has a 1GHz processor, which is good (same as Galaxy S), but not good enough (Galaxy SII just rolled out). Its phone functionality also has limitation where it only can use loud speaker for voice calls.
Nokia N96. My reason is simple. I want a cheap phone with good camera, big display, non-touch screen, and WiFi. Sometimes I get tired of using touch screen where sometimes it doesn't respond to my fingers, or my fingers always miss it. Using a typical phone with buttons feel good too, I miss the real tactile feedback of pressing keypad. LOL. The N96 does almost what I've asked for, the only problem is that its processor is slow.
iPad 2. A sudden decision to purchase an iPad 2. Its full of fun, its full of rules of iOS, its full of games. Its very fast, iOS is really responsive on its dual core A5 processor. Camera is lousy but at least it has camera. I've FaceTime-ed for the first time in my life, LOL. I love the 9.7" display, which is really brilliant and responsive. The only problem is, it is too big to be brought around, and its WiFi issue. Its connection to WiFi is very weak, and it disconnects from time to time. I sell it because I found it too hard to be brought around when I go out.
Samsung Galaxy SII. Finally, I have my first dual core phone, I believe that I've chose the one of the best dual core phones out there. Again, Samsung processor is really fast and responsive. It seldom lets me wait even I have at least 9 pages of apps on it. Its very slick, thin and light-weight. But I found that I have difficulties when holding it because it is too light and thin. I almost drop it from my hands for a couple of times. Everything is great, just that I can't really go back to 4.3" display. Its not so useful as my eBook reader. By the way, Super AMOLED Plus display is really awesome and unforgettable.
Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus. An upgrade from original Galaxy Tab. Yep, it is dual core, it is Honeycomb, it is slimmer and lighter than the original one. Although I consider that it is a downgrade from SII... This is what I currently want. I don't know how long will I use it. Just, at the moment, I feel alright.
No, I really plan for a short update, but it ends up not really short. Ok, time to sleep. Gotta go back to KL tomorrow and face the reality again. Sigh. Night.
