    Hanging onto a busted-up phone?

    Break your screen, and the ice

     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     zshasty says, 'I'll probably just ride it until the wheels fall off because the iPhone is pretty expensive.'
    - nsaidi, CNN iReport producer

    6 months ago, a wonderful drunk person punched my phone in my breast pocket and smashed my iPhone screen.  I lived with it for three months, until I took it for a swim in the pool. Distraught, I switched to my back up blackberry while I left my iPhone out in the summer heat to dry out.  After plugging it in, it immediately continued to function.  I had always hid my phone in my pocket because it was so unsightly, until I walked up to a bar and sat it down next to the prettiest lady in the establishment.  She immediately gasped, "what in the world happened to your phone?!". I left with her number and a new strategy for singles with busted smartphones.
