i'm asian and i still don't understand it. I guess it's the "look at me, i've got two phones. I must be a really important person because I am so busy that i need 2 lines."

Care to explain the psychology behind having two phones?

well because of the system of plans they have in asia... not sure about the states but they always have plans where SMS is dirt cheap and calling is really expensive and vice versa, so therefore you have one phone for SMS and one for calling.

And I've read somewhere that people in Asian countries always depend on mobile phone/pda more than laptops and americans prefer to use laptops.

And some people actually need 3 phones, my mom travels alot and when she travels to countries she visits often, she has 3phones, 1 Treo 650, 1 Blackberry and mobile phone with the Local number. Her job requires the use of Email, SMS and talking on the phone alot so therefore she has 3. I have two because I have one with an Australian number and one with my old Hong Kong number so my friends can still SMS me locally instead of paying international. Plus I do alot of work for my mom representing the newspaper company she works for in Australia so I use my xda to download my emails and reply them when I'm in boring lectures during class.

And Axlxa, I can't deny that Asian people love having the latest cell phones because they want to try the new technology or something, its built into the culture here (well not here, where I used to live, Hong kong, malaysia.....etc)... if you think we're bad, look at Korea and Japan

Well that guy lives in Israel, so I doubt it's because he's Asian. Unless by Asian you mean people from the continent, which includes me.

But you're preaching to the choir... I'm personally would cite mobiles as a hobby of mine and I usually have really recent phones. But he's like 15 and half of his posts on a car forum are about him getting a new phone... that's why I said what I said.

I admit that getting the latest phone is a hobby as well... and yes, I noticed that all car sightings does is post what phone he is getting next on the forum, which is really frequent (Even I don't change phones that much). And Shawn, I think its all Asians and the asians who live in asia are the ones that are influenced the most, as I said, it is because of culture
