I wish I could afford the new NZ. Even with my NR being traded in, I couldn't afford the 300+ for it :( Oh well, next time with OS6 maybe :D

The power of plastic

I robbed a bank; well kind of-I used plastic too for 8 months of payments.

I brought an ipod 6 months ago and thought that was the best thing since swiss cheese; I still use it (until I get a 1gb memory stick or an expansion driver for the CF slot) but now I can say the NZ is the best thing I have used and I use it all the time.

Paid cash last night. FANTASTIC unit, and it really looks like 800 bucks.

Credit Card! and I have a spare few thousand in the bank for emergencies such as these.
But I am still waiting for mine as I am in the UK.

Used the money I was going to use to replace my dining room carpet. It was worth every penny. I hope it is a while before they come out with the next one. This is my third one since May!

It suprised me how many paid with cash. I'm afraid to walk around with more than $200 in my pocket and this is 4 times that.

I use a case with all my credit cards and drivers license in it. Seeing as how it'd be even worse to lose that, the Clie is fairly safe... Actually with mem stick and registered programs, you're looking at even more money.....
And I really payed cash for mine. I would never buy a Rolex, even if I had the money. Watches and me don't mix well...

I paid with Credit Card, but will pay for it at months end. I too have an emergency fund for new PDA's and PEO's

Wow, I too am surprised by all the cash payments.

Oneeye: I love watches. But not as much as PDA's and PEO's. ;)

dated the sales person from the store for a week, dropping hints about it, men are so fast to show that they can afford you... gift wise. Now I just have to re-evualuate the relationship, not sure if it was him or the NZ... but think i'll check the store over once more to see if anything catches my eye, just to be sure.

J/K cold hard cash, with an extended plan. Had 600 credit from the NR70v which reciently broke and just tossed in 3 bills, 2 for the unit and 1 for the new warrenty. But did do without going to get hair and nails done for almost 2 months

I sell there all the time. They have Marketplace where I sell most things .. They also Have Auctions.. I like to use Marketplace better if you have all the packaging.

I am glad to see that only one is paying in installments, that is real murder.

I dressed up all sexy, batted my eyelashes and begged my husband for one.....when THAT didn't work, I went online and ordered one from Amazon with a 6 months same as cash option and took advantage of their $50 rebate instead...LOL!
