He Wasn't

No, it's too expensive and none of my friends use 3G phones. There's no point having  one if I can't talk to anyone on the phone. But I would like to have one in future. I think it will be nice to see someone when you're talking to them. I send more than 100 text messages to my friends every day because the service is free. It's like my portable ICQ.

Top tunes: The Mouse Loves the Rice

No, I just got a new phone so I won't be changing phones for a while. I don't like the idea of a video phone because everyone will know where I am and I won't have any privacy. 3G phones and the service charges are too expensive. To save money, I often send my friends text messages instead of calling. I ask them where they are and what they are doing, just like messaging on the internet.

Top tunes: Kenny G's music

No, most of my friends do not have one. I will think about buying one when my friends get one. My mobile phone has many functions already. I often take photos with it and send them to my friends. I send a lot of text messages. My school is very strict about using mobile phones on campus, but sometimes we manage to sneak in a few text messages.

Top tunes: W-inds' songs

No, 3G phones are too expensive. The cheapest one is about $4,000. I won't buy a 3G phone unless the prices go down. And I don't think 3G phones are that cool. I've seen people using them in the street and they looked quite silly. I don't change my phones just to keep up with the trends. It's a waste of money.

new release

No, I am not interested in 3G phones. They're not very popular in Hong Kong and I think they're too much trouble. I'm not just saying this because I don't want my girlfriend to know where I am all the time. I sent her a MMS (multimedia message) on Valentine's Day. It was the only MMS I've ever sent because it's so expensive. I usually send text messages because they are free.



Do you have a 3G mobile phone?
