My uncle who owns a cellphone and gadgets shop remarked that if there’s one thing that Filipinos are fond of wasting money on, it could be cellphones. Some cellphone owners change their phones as frequently as how they change their clothes. He said that one of his clients changes his cellphones weekly through trade-ins and cellphone swapping, which is somehow unreflective of poverty the Filipinos are experiencing.
Anyway, the Filipinos’ fondness to gadgets and cellphone is maybe the reason why the release of the iPhone 3G to the Philippines has been anticipated by most gadget enthusiasts. iPhone, which has taken the world by storm on its first major release, is coming to the Philippines with Globe Telecom as the mobile provider on August 22, 2008! It’s 6 days to go!
