Why is it we always want the latest tech?

So your watching your TV... an iPod touch 4G ad comes on... the ad ends, you have an iPod touch 3G. You kind of like what you see on the ad... FOREVER ON you ALWAYS think about that new iPod touch that came out! - See the problem here? You watched the ad is the problem. "But I want to see the latest tech" - Sure you do, so maybe watching the ad isn't the issue, maybe it's thinking about it AFTER the ad, and going to the site displayed on the ad that reads "You could have an iPod touch for just $199" - $199! but.. stop and think... $199 is the 8GB model which isn't worth what you pay for. So you really need the 32GB one. "But wait.. I've only had my touch 3G for 1 year.. does this mean every year I have to buy the new one?" - No. See what your missing here is if you take good care of your iPod (DON'T JAILBREAK ON MODIFY IN ANY WAY), sure you don't have the camera sure you don't have the mic, but... if you don't jailbreak which often requires a firmware downgrade, you can have (almost) the same software as the touch 4G, and 2 years later when it breaks you buy a new one. You see it's learning to live with what God gave you. I have the iPod nano 5G and have been wanting the touch 4G SO bad since January. But I waited, and waited, and waited some more, and now I'm (most likely if everything goes right) 1 month away for getting one! - I know what your thinking "6 months?!? is this some kind of joke? 6 months isn't that long to wait" - It is when you want it REALLY bad. So next time you want the latest tech, stop and think before you buy.
